The Jiujiang Sesame Ball is a traditional snack of Nanhai, Foshan. Although still called a sesame ball, it is flat. Made from glutinous rice flour, golden slab sugar, peanut kernel, corn, white sesame seeds, and candied tangerines, it gained its name because it was created in Jiujiang Town, Nanhai County. With a golden color, a thin crust and refined fillings, it tastes sweet and crispy. It is a popular New Year present for fortune and good luck.
