What kind of traditional cakes are the best in Kunming?

Hui cake is a traditional cake in Kunming, which has a legendary origin. More than 50 years ago, an inkstone master in Hexianglou pastry shop kneaded dough and found that he forgot to add eggs. At this time, the dough will be sour and continue to ferment, and the noodles will go bad. Bread can't be made without fermentation. When attacked, a master named Li Qingxiang said, "Add baking soda to make scones!" ! It's soft and delicious, especially delicious. A master said, "This kind of cake is made by returning dough. Let's call it back! " Later, they added a proper amount of pepper oil and refined salt to the ingredients, which tasted better.

In Kunming, there are many shops selling cakes in the market. Jiahua, Ajisen, Jiqingxiang and other local pastry brands are all produced. Personal preferences are different, it is difficult to evaluate the "best" taste, but Ji's cakes are most in line with the taste remembered by Kunming people. After the suspension of business for rectification, the "Hexiang Building" was merged into Hebei, so the most authentic practice was handed down.

Ji's cakes are soft, sweet and salty, dry in the mouth and non-sticky.
