Introduction: Guangdong white sugar cake sponge was first created in Lunjiao, Shunde, Guangdong Province in the Ming Dynasty. Now it is one of the most common pastries in Guangdong and Hong Kong. It is said that a vendor surnamed Liang created this pastry when he accidentally dropped the powder while steaming sponge cake. White sugar cake sponge is fresh and sweet and looks simple, but in fact it is complicated to make. It is made from rice flour, white sugar, water, and a leavening agent.
