　　Sweetened glutinous rice cakes with ground soybean paste – Tóngréng Glutinous Rice Cakes. Since ancient times, these rice cakes have symbolized festive occasions and celebrations. They are also known as “New Year Cakes,” “Birthday Cakes,” or “Ridge-Beam Cakes.” They serve three main purposes: first, as gifts to family and friends during holidays and festivals, as reflected in the saying “When paying New Year visits, bring glutinous rice cakes first”; second, as treats for guests; and third, as offerings during the ridge-beam raising ceremony in rural house construction, known as “Ridge-Beam Cakes,” symbolizing celebration and good fortune.

　　Tóngréng Glutinous Rice Cakes stand out not only for their carefully selected ingredients and refined production process but also for the use of high-quality soybeans. The beans are roasted until fragrant and then ground into fine powder along with white sugar to make the seasoning. The resulting cakes are soft, glutinous, and chewy without sticking to the teeth, offering a fragrant, comforting, and delicious taste.
