According to legend, the name tribute sugar has two origins: one is that it was once a royal tribute used by people during pilgrimage, so it was named tribute; the other is that tribute sugar needs to be beaten manually during the production process to make the sugar dense. Meticulous, called tribute in southern Fujian. Peanut candy and peanut candy are the two major raw materials for making tribute candy. Gongtang originated from the combination of peanuts and maltose. The roasted peanuts are mixed with pure maltose at a high ratio in the best and most fragrant state, then manually mashed, wrapped, then kneaded, soaked, flowed, and finally cut into pieces. Kinmen sugar was introduced to Little Kinmen with Xiamen bakers and was widely made into tea by ordinary cake shops. There are two types of Minnan tribute candy, both made of fried peanuts.
