Glutinous Rice and Date Cake

Glutinous Rice and Date Cake

Overview

The sweet Xinjiang red dates aroused my appetite for making cold cakes. I started immediately without waiting. The finished product looked a bit like pork belly! Sprinkle sugared osmanthus on it and smell the fragrant osmanthus. Take a bite of jujube paste and it is smooth, rice fragrant and sweet. In the hot summer, enjoy a piece of delicious cold cake. It tastes soft and glutinous, refreshing and pleasant, fragrant but not overpowering, sweet but not greasy, and has endless aftertaste!
