Ding Sheng cake was the most traditional snack in Hangzhou during the Southern Song Dynasty. There are people selling carts in the streets and alleys. The restaurant will customize more exquisite and different styles. Pale pink cakes have various shapes such as plum blossoms and fish worms. It is mainly a rice cake made of glutinous rice in Jiangnan, which is finely ground into rice flour with a stone mill. Pan-fry until golden and hot, then sprinkle with osmanthus. It was put on a celadon plate and dressed for the autumn dance.
Three or five friends sat together, drinking newly brewed osmanthus tea, slowly tasting soft glutinous sweet cakes sprinkled with osmanthus, chatting casually, and looked up and saw sporadic osmanthus rain blown by the breeze. The children ran to the corner of the yard to pick it up and put it in front of their noses and sniffed it a little hard. In the distance, they saw someone coming slowly from the winding moss-covered path.
