History: In the Song Dynasty, the ancient practice began. "Yanjing Years" records that Sugar-Coated Berry used bamboo sticks, which were penetrated with hawthorn, begonia fruit, grapes, yam, walnut kernel, bean paste, etc., and dipped in rock sugar, which was sweet, crisp and cold. Teahouses, theaters, streets and alleys can be seen everywhere, and now it has become a traditional snack in China. Sugar-Coated Berry has the functions of appetizing, caring skin, increasing intelligence, relieving fatigue and clearing away heat.

Origin: The name of the Emperor of South Song Guangzong was Zhao Dun, and the year number was "Shaoxi". During the reign of Shaoxi, Huang Guifei, Song Guangzong's favorite, fell ill. She is sallow and emaciated, and she doesn't think about eating or drinking. The physician used a lot of expensive drugs, but nothing worked. When the emperor saw that his beloved princess was getting haggard, he also frowned all day. Finally, I had no choice but to post a list for medical treatment. A quack doctor revealed the list and entered the palace. After feeling the pulse of Huang Guifei, he said, "As long as you use rock sugar and red fruit (that is, hawthorn), you should eat five to ten tablets before each meal, and you will get well within half a month." At first, everyone was skeptical, but fortunately, this way of eating was also to the taste of the imperial concubine. After taking it in this way, the imperial concubine recovered as scheduled. The emperor was naturally overjoyed and began to frown. Later, this practice spread to the people, and the people strung it together and sold it, which became Sugar-Coated Berry.
