In traditional Chinese culture, red represents celebration and good fortune. The red and round candied haws also symbolize reunion, happiness and health. As a "limited happiness" in winter, you can always see "fancy" candied haws at Chinese New Year temple fairs - rock candy oranges, rock candy grapes, rock candy tomatoes... It can be said that "everything can be rock candy!" (Zhao Li)
Tanghulu once went viral on social media, but few people overseas know that it actually comes from China. It originated in the Southern Song Dynasty and has a history of seven to eight hundred years.
