According to legends from the 17th century, a royal concubine of Lord Trinh Trang taught the people of Duong Lam village how to grow sugarcane to make candy. The sweetness of the sugar derived from sugarcane was used by the people to create various types of candies, such as peanut candy and sesame candy. The combination of sugar and sticky peanuts or sesame formed candy bars, which also served as nutritious food to supply the army fighting against foreign invaders. Therefore, to express gratitude to her, our ancestors honored her as the “Sugarcane Queen” (Ba Chua Mia), and she is worshipped at Mia Pagoda – Duong Lam Ancient Village, Son Tay.
Later, many places expanded the production of these peanut and sesame candies, and it has become a gift reminiscent of the homeland, of Vietnamese culture, and a meaningful gift for distant guests visiting Vietnam.
Bao Minh has researched and introduced machinery and equipment to replace the manual work of artisans, resulting in golden, higher-quality, more uniform candies with a more moderate level of sweetness, making them favored by many consumers.
