Strip cake and mint cake

There are so many types of pastries in Shanghai that you can't count them on your toes. Among them, the strip cake and mint cake are the most famous. As the name suggests, the cake is made in the shape of a long strip of glutinous rice dough wrapped in fine bean paste and steamed. Then sprinkle sugar osmanthus on top. The golden osmanthus grains are dotted with white strip cakes, which are soft and glutinous to eat, and the sweetness has a faint aroma of osmanthus flowers. Mint cake is made by adding mint powder to glutinous rice flour, steaming and letting it cool. The taste is powdery, sweet, and has a minty coolness.
