Auntie’s shop is a temporary shop because she makes taro cakes at home. The old man can help her and do the preparations every morning. She can make taro cakes around noon and then in the afternoon It opens at four o'clock and lasts until sold out, but it usually sells out in half an hour. The taro cakes in the store sell for 3.5 yuan each, and come in two flavors: sweet and salty. They are always made and taken directly to the store. You can sell it here, no other tools are needed, just sell it directly.

There is a reason why Auntie insists on making taro cakes by hand. In her words, the dishes made by two chefs in a restaurant will be different. She insists on making them herself to keep the taste consistent and ensure quality. In this way, diners will not be disappointed. The taro cake actually looks relatively simple. Its outer shell is wrapped in biscuits, which is the finished product. Inside, the taro paste is made from chopped fish heads and steamed them thoroughly, and then stirs them into taro. Puree, add seasonings, mix sweet or salty, mix evenly, then sandwich the taro puree with biscuits, and finally put it into a pan and fry it. Although it is simple, it still requires experience and skills to keep it consistent for 27 years.

The outer shell of the prepared taro paste cake is relatively crispy. When you eat it, the aroma of the biscuits can make you intoxicated. The taro paste inside is delicate and will not stick to your throat when you eat it. It has a light taste. It doesn't make you tired, but you have the urge to take a bite.

They are sold out and are handmade. Many Diners waiting at the back of the queue can only try it with the attitude of giving it a try. Whenever the auntie sees that there is not much left, she will inform the customers in advance to please come early next time.
