The main raw material of ice powder is produced from "ice powder tree", whose scientific name is pseudophysalis, also known as pearl lotus and ice powder tree.

The ice powder tree is native to Peru and is mainly distributed in Yunnan, Guangxi and other places in China. It is also cultivated in Guizhou, Hunan and Sichuan, where the delicious snack ice powder originated.

After soaking the pseudophysalis seeds in water for a sufficient period of time, filter out the seeds, add an appropriate amount of coagulant (such as lime water, etc.), and after solidification for a period of time, crystal clear jelly with a cool taste will be made.
