Ingredients of ice powder: cooked peanuts, chopped raisins, Ciba, sesame, hawthorn slices, peanuts, pineapple, brown sugar, fermented grains, coconut and watermelon. Ice powder is a famous summer snack, which originated in Yunnan and Guizhou, and was introduced to Pengshan (Wuyang) in Sichuan, and was widely welcomed in Sichuan and Chongqing. Its main raw material is produced from "ice powder tree", whose scientific name is fake acid pulp, also known as pearl lotus and ice powder tree.

Ice powder tree is an annual solanaceae plant, which likes to grow in low-altitude mountainous areas, so it is very common in mountainous areas of Sichuan and Guizhou in China. But when it comes to the country of origin, it is actually in Peru.

At the turn of spring and summer, the official ice powder tree bears fruit, and round fruits are hung all over the branches. If you cut it with a knife, you will find the dense ice powder seeds inside, and our ice powder comes from this.

Ice powder seeds contain a lot of pectin, which can be turned into ice powder after solidification, but the pectin of ice powder seeds is not solidified well, so limewater is usually added to help solidification.
