Inspired by history, a new "A Pineapple Book" cultural and creative gift box is created
Over the past century, pineapple cakes have not only been a classic Taiwanese snack, but also carry a moving historical story. Ichihōng has launched a new cultural and creative gift box called "A Book of Pineapples, a Century of Prosperity", inspired by the different flavors of pineapple cakes in Taiwan at different times: winter melon filling, native pineapple filling, and the new era's "double phoenix filling".
Nearly a hundred years ago, Mr. Lin Xiantang, a famous Taiwanese scholar from the Wufeng Lin Family, went to Japan to petition for democracy using pineapple cakes.
Today, through this gift box, we relive that brave and warm history, as well as the delicious snacks that have accompanied the lives of Taiwanese people.
Three eras, three bites of pineapple cakes, taste the flavor of a century-old Wang Lai Ying
"A Book of Pineapple Cakes" is not just a box of pineapple cakes, but also a journey through time of taste and culture. Open this "book" and savor the century-long evolution of Taiwan's pineapple cakes. Every bite is a mark of history, every piece is a microcosm of the times, and you can also taste the flavor of the century-old Wang Lai Ying.
"A Pineapple Cake" Taiwan Cultural and Creative Story Gift Box.
Nearly a hundred years ago, Lin Xiantang, a member of the Wufeng Lin family, one of the five major families in Taiwan, brought pineapple cakes made in Taiwan to Japan to petition for the establishment of the Taiwan Parliament.
This pastry is more than just a dessert; it has become part of the Taiwanese spirit.
A small pineapple cake contains not only flavor, but also the memories and dreams of the times.
Therefore, Ichinosato transformed this history into a gift box that can be "read and tasted".
• The cover is shaped like a book, and the gold stamping process is delicate.
• Contains three different pineapple cakes from different eras: from the "winter melon filling" that Taiwanese people used to eat in the early days,
From the purity of the "local pineapple filling" to the "Double Phoenix Filling" which won the Gold Award at the Ichigo Pineapple Cake Cultural Festival and combines innovative flavors.
• The packaging is available in four languages: Chinese, English, Japanese and Korean. We hope that travelers from all over the world can feel the story of this land when they open this "Book of the Flavor of Taiwan".
This is the first time in Taiwan's baking history that a book has been written to tell the story of pineapple cakes, and also the story of Taiwan. It is a transformational work for the brand, and it also introduces Taiwan's gentle dreams to the world.
Culture x Deliciousness x Craftsmanship | Let pineapple cakes become a Taiwanese memory worth collecting
The book-like design showcases a retro and elegant aesthetic, symbolizing the precious heritage of Taiwan’s pastry culture.
The inner pages delicately depict the history of pineapple cakes, from winter melon filling, to local pineapple cakes, to the golden ratio double phoenix filling exclusively developed by Ichigo. Reading this "book" carefully is like flipping through the history of Taiwanese desserts.
Exquisite individual packaging makes it easy to carry, and it is also a gift with a story and history. You can not only taste Taiwanese delicacies but also learn about the delicious stories behind them!
Limited sale, invite you to taste the century-old story of Taiwan pineapple cakes! .
First bite: Winter melon stuffing era | Delicious street food as a souvenir for the wealthy
In the early days, pineapple cakes did not actually contain pineapples! Pineapples cost more than winter melons, and exporting them would have a greater economic benefit, and they are not liked because of their sour taste. So winter melons were used, mixed with maltose, and pineapples were used to create a smooth taste. This was a milestone in the introduction of baking technology to Taiwan, and became the most familiar snack for Taiwanese people in the 20th century.
Second bite: local pineapple filling | Taste revolution, the true rise of pineapple cakes
In the 21st century, in pursuit of a natural, rich flavor, Taiwanese pineapples were used, which have a slightly sweet and sour taste and a texture that is different from winter melon fillings. The "authentic pineapple cakes" that were made in Taiwan pineapple cakes after 50 years of innovation finally appeared.
The third bite: Double Phoenix filling | The birth of the golden ratio, a perfect and wonderful harmonious taste
Ichigo's innovative research and development combines "local pineapples" with "Golden Diamond Pineapples" to perfectly balance acidity and sweetness. In the process of agricultural reform of pineapple varieties, a rich and fragrant formula was found. Every bite is a balanced and delicate pineapple enjoyment.
