The eight-treasure rice is derived from the ancient eight-treasure map. The early eight-treasure rice was steamed glutinous rice mixed with sugar and lard, and put some lotus seeds, red dates, longan meat, honey cherries, honey winter melon, barley rice and so on. Life is colorful, beautiful in color, fragrance, and meaning: lotus seeds are transformed from harmony in the Eight Treasures, symbolizing marriage harmony and reconciliation; longan symbolizing reunion; red jujubes symbolizing early birth of a precious child. The colorful life is a good product for festivals and hospitality.
