Xiting shortbread is a traditional specialty food produced in Xiting, a thousand-year-old town. It was first created in the late Qing Dynasty and has a history of more than 100 years.

Each Xiting shortbread is less than two centimeters thick, with eighteen layers. When eaten dry, it has a crispy, crispy, fragrant and sweet feeling; when eaten soaked, the layers are not messy, the soup is not muddy, and the fragrance is delicious. It is tangy, pure and delicious, rich in nutrients, good for the spleen and appetizing, and is very popular among people.

In the early years of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty (around 1880), a Zhenjiang businessman named Leng Chunxi crossed the river and settled in Xiting Town to make a living. He opened a tea restaurant and named it "Fuxing Store". A kind of sweet food - shortbread. Unexpectedly, business is slow and few people are interested. In order to gain a foothold in the competition among peers and build a brand, Leng spent a lot of money to hire a highly skilled tea and food chef to develop a new shortbread recipe, and recruited apprentices to teach the skills. He named the "shortbread" "Pan Crisp" and used refined white flour, cotton and cotton. White sugar, pure refined white oil, and peeled white sesame are the main raw materials. We have put a lot of thought into the color, aroma, taste, and shape, so it quickly became unique. There was an endless stream of admiring buyers, and the business was booming. Be optimistic every day. It also happened by fate, because Xiting is the ancestral home of Zhang Jian, who was the number one scholar in the late Qing Dynasty and later held important positions as Minister of Agriculture, Forestry, Industry and Commerce in the Beiyang Government. This year, when he went back to his hometown to visit relatives and worship his ancestors, he tasted the crispbreads of Fuxing Store, which was on the same street and only a few steps away. After highly appreciating it, he affectionately titled the store "Fuxing Store". "Longmao" means prosperous business and abundant financial resources. When Zhang Zhuangyuan went to Beijing, he presented the crispbread as a local specialty of his hometown to dignitaries, envoys in China and foreign merchants in the capital, thus making Fulongmao crispy cake famous.

Due to the vicissitudes of life, Fulong Mao Biscuit Shop has gone through several ups and downs: During the Anti-Japanese War, it was almost destroyed by artillery fire and fell into a depression; after liberation, during three years of natural disasters, it once again closed down. It was only with the reform and opening up of the motherland that this long-lost traditional food was unearthed, production resumed, and the trademark "Xiting Crispy Cake" was officially registered.

The reason why Xiting shortbread is famous is not only the selection of pure ingredients, but also the careful operation of the workers. From kneading the dough to taking it out of the oven, there are 28 processes in one day, and they are basically all manual operations. After the cake embryo is pasted on the wall of the yellow mud furnace, it is baked with high-quality smokeless coal for more than an hour and a half before it is out of the oven. It is made in this way The finished shortbread is plump, golden in color and fragrant, which is really appetizing.

Over the past decades, Xiting Biscuit Factory has grown from a handmade workshop with only three workers and three clay stoves to a food factory with more than 100 workers and a batch of advanced equipment. ; And continuous innovation has made new varieties of salt and pepper, selenium-containing shortbreads, etc., which are more popular among people. In early 1989, Xiting Crispy Cake won the gold medal at the National Food Expo. In 2001, the "Xiting Crispy Cake" brand entered the ranks of famous trademarks in Jiangsu Province. There is a song among the local people: "Xiting Crispy Cake has eighteen layers, layer by layer. It’s clearly capable of lighting up people’s tastes, it’s sweet and crispy, and it’s delicious.” This is probably the most concise description and praise of this traditional food!
