According to the industry encyclopedia, the rice in the cake is processed from the rice planted by farmers, and the sugar in the cake is boiled with sugarcane juice and beet juice. When cooking sugar, you should have tools. Even if the cake is ready, it needs people to package, deliver and sell it, which requires a lot of manpower. Therefore, this cake is called "cake for thousands of people", which shows that only by working together and cooperating with each other can we succeed.

The rice cake for thousands of people is the one we usually eat, and it is one of the special snacks in China. It is usually called rice cake or sticky cake. Rice cakes are steamed with glutinous rice or rice flour and have a long history. In the Han Dynasty, rice cakes were called "rice cakes", "bait" and "cakes".
