Origin:

The earliest cakes were made of several simple materials. Early cakes These cakes are symbols of ancient religious myths and magical superstitions. The early economic and trade routes imported exotic spices from the Far East to the north, nuts, toilet water, citrus fruits, dates and figs from the Middle East, and sugar cane from eastern and southern countries.

In the dark ages of Europe, these rare raw materials were only available to monks and nobles. Their pastry creations were honey gingerbread and flat hard biscuits. Slowly, with the frequent trade, the eating habits of western countries have completely changed. Soldiers returning from the Crusades and Arab businessmen spread the use of spices and recipes in the Middle East.

In several major commercial centers in Central Europe, bakers' trade associations have also been organized. At the end of the Middle Ages, spices were widely used by wealthy families all over Europe, which further enhanced the imaginative pastry baking technology.

When nuts and sugar became popular, almond paste also became popular. This almond paste is baked in a relief mold made of wood carving, and the pattern on the mold is related to religious teachings. Cake originated in the west, and then it was slowly introduced to China.
