The historical background of Xinjiang cake cutting;

Cake cutting has a long history. As early as the Silk Road, Xinjiang was an important transportation hub for caravans at home and abroad, and also a very important food supply station. Because merchants travel long distances, the food they carry must be preserved for a long time and easy to carry, and must be rich in various nutrients, amino acids, vitamin C and other trace elements necessary for the human body.

Otherwise, if people travel long distances, they will die of scurvy, just like the sailors on Da Gama and Magellan's ocean fleet. The characteristics of easy storage, easy carrying and high nutrition of cut cakes are meeting the needs of business people.
