With a history dating back the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), Yuanling crunchy candy is famous in China. The square-shaped candies are sweet, fragrant and crunchy, and are melt in the mouth easily. Yuanling crunchy candies feature white toasted sesame seeds, which will be crushed and used to make the filling with other ingredients, including maltose, peanut oil and flour. Rich in nutrients, they can moisten the lungs and are helpful for digestion. They are popular among visiting overseas Chinese, who always buy some crunchy candies as gifts for their families and friends back home.
