What are the intangible cultural heritage handmade sugar paintings similar to?

Intangible cultural heritage handicraft sugar paintings are similar to connected strokes.

Sugar painting is a traditional folk handicraft in my country and belongs to the national intangible cultural heritage. Sugar painting is a painting made of sugar as a material, and it is also an edible painting.

The production method is to boil brown sugar, white sugar and a little caramel sugar in a stove until it is ready for drawing, then cast it on a flat stone slab for painting, and finally stick a bamboo stick on it while it is hot, so that it can be seen and eaten.

There will be no interruption between each stroke of sugar painting. The painting technique is very similar to continuous painting. It is done in one go. If the movement is slow, the sugar will solidify. If you want to draw beautiful sugar paintings, you must have good technical skills. Being able to become National intangible cultural heritage also makes sense.
