1. The real name of the golden cake is honeycomb cake, which originated in Nanyang and is a kind of Nanyang Nyonya cake. Golden cake is an alias after it was spread to Guangdong. The important raw material of this kind of cake is Nanyang cassava. The finished product is honeycomb, so it is called honeycomb cake, and it is also called shark fin cake because it is filiform after slicing.

2. The reason why this cake can be called "golden cake" among hundreds of cakes is because the technology, fermentation and baking requirements of this cake are very high. Even Nianyao, who has been making cakes for decades, put a kitchen knife on the fermenter to exorcise ghosts in order to ensure the smooth baking of cakes, but sometimes it failed.

3. At the beginning, all the skills of this cake were in the hands of a returned girl from a certain place in Guangxi ASEAN Economic Park. Many Guangdong masters failed to steal the teacher, which led to this cake being called the cake king in Guangdong for several years. 500g was sold to 30 yuan, which was more expensive than pork and mutton.

4. Fine honeycomb holes can be seen at the top of the cake. The sliced surface must be as thin as the shark's fin line, and the bottom of the cake should not be burnt. The whole cake must be golden yellow, and the taste must be elastic, with the fragrance of honey and coconut. Not every pastry chef who can make this cake can do it. Now this kind of cake-making technology has been leaked out and blossomed all over the country, but few masters can do it best. No wonder this cake is inch by inch.
