Why Do Vietnamese People Only Eat Traditional Confectionery During Holidays and Tet?

>> Khao cake – a cake deeply imbued with traditional Vietnamese flavor

>> Hanoi cha cake – a specialty of the Kinh Ky land

Habits of Vietnamese people in buying and enjoying traditional confectionery

Vietnamese people often have the habit of enjoying food and drinks based on specific events. For example, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, every family will eat mooncakes and snow skin mooncakes. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, very few families buy these two traditional cakes to eat.

Baked mooncake – An indispensable cake for the Mid-Autumn Festival

Or on the occasion of engagement and wedding ceremonies, both families will buy and eat cakes such as bánh cốm, su xe cake, lotus jam… Especially su xe cake, also known as husband and wife cake, for generations, it has been defaulted to as the traditional “wedding cake” of the Vietnamese people. Therefore, people only buy and eat it when there is a wedding, while on normal days, few people eat this type of cake.

Khao cake, cha cake… are the same. Many families buy these cakes only to serve the purpose of offering at temples during Tet, full moon days, and the first day of the month. However, to buy as a daily snack, traditional cakes are not the choice of many families, but instead, they choose cakes, cookies, rice crackers…

Or jam products, which are also very delicious, can be bought as daily snacks. But nowadays, many families consider jam as “sweets” only to be eaten during Tet, while on other normal days, they do not. They prefer colorful candies wrapped in shiny nylon wrappers.

Need to change the perception of traditional confectionery products

The reason traditional confectionery is “overshadowed” by modern confectionery is simply because consumers“ perceptions have changed. Many people believe that traditional confectionery is only suitable for important occasions, where it is ”mandatory' and indispensable, such as weddings, holidays, Tet, or going to temples to light incense. As for normal days, they are not as suitable as modern confectionery in terms of convenience as well as delicious flavor and beautiful packaging.

It is time for us to give up this perception. Because traditional confectionery is now also produced using modern processes like modern confectionery, so their quality and convenience are equal. It is not true that traditional confectionery is always handmade, cooked with coal stoves, gas stoves and wrapped in sketchy nylon sheets, sold freely at grocery stores, roadside stalls.
