It has white and silver light color，wrap together like many threads，but you can also see a layered appearance，such as crafted gadgets，it is still a snack that has been popular in China for nearly two thousand years. The taste is crisp, sweet and tempting; Dragon Beard Candy is the major star of our promotion today.

At the very first beginning, the candy was called “silver candy”. It is said that this unique folk food was discovered during the inspection of Emperor Zhengde of the Ming Dynasty, he then brought it back to his own palace and named it “silver candy”, which became people’s favorite sweet ever since. Some years later, Emperor Yongzheng of the Qing Dynasty hosted a banquet, and he saw the process of making this special candy. The sugar lines in hands are white and slim, and the candy looks like dragon’s beard. Yongzheng was very impressed and named it “Dragon Beard Candy”. From then on, the Dragon Beard Candy has become famous all over the world.
