Sugar Candy Biscuit

When I was a kid, I love this little biscuit. These are also use in prayers by some Chinese during the lunar 7th month. It's called the Hungry Ghost Festival and it will last for a month. Today happen to be the 1st day of the Hungry Ghost Festival and I saw people praying on the streets.

Thought it will be interesting to make some of this. So, I bought a packet of the biscuit as a guide.

If you like to read and find out more just google for Hungry Ghost Festival.

They are normally sold by weight. So, I bought a packet.



The life size biscuit is on the left and I have place a tooth pick for size gauge.

    Hi Jenny,
    The little bottles you liked on my blog I got at HHH Enterprise. They do not open though. I did not figure this out right away! Only when I went to put something in them did I realize they didn't open! I decorated them with stickers and embellishments. :D
