Chaoshan has a saying that goes by the way: "Guiyu Cake, Pingliang Cake, Xiancheng Bunch of Sand, Haimen Cake Boy." It can be seen that the Peace Onion Cake is included in the list of chaoyang famous products.

In the area of Heping Town, Chaoyang County, since the Ming Dynasty, the annual spring equinox ancestor worship activities take the green onion cake as the sacrifice, and after the ancestor worship is completed, the green onion cake is distributed to the children who participate in the ancestor worship activities, so that the ancestor worship activities add an active and joyful atmosphere. The local snack of flat onion cake has also developed with the development of ancestor worship activities, and its scope has been expanding, gradually evolving from the original sacrifice to the local snacks loved by the people.

It is characterized by a thin and crisp skin, soft and sweet filling, fat but not greasy, suitable for the mouth and refreshing, and it is indeed a good product for people's tea.

The original peace onion cake is said to have been made by the Wang family. It is made from shallots, glutinous rice, peanut oil and sugar, called vegetarian shallot cake. From the end of the Ming Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, there were also shallot cakes made of green onions, glutinous rice, lard and sugar as raw materials, and their taste and quality were greatly improved compared with vegetarian onion cakes. However, the production of vegetarian shallot cake has never stopped, because the cost of shallot cake is high, and the average person cannot afford to buy it. During the Qing Guangxu period, the oil shallot cake began to be exported to Southeast Asia, the sales expanded, so the production has developed rapidly, from a few to more than ten, the more famous are WuFangqu in Xitou, Ma Fengyuan in Xiazhai, Ma Fasheng in Zhongzhai, Ma Wanghe in Xinhe and so on. In particular, the onion cake shop jointly operated by Xinhe Mawang is the best, and its production of shallot cakes is made of fresh white "mane" (high-quality greasy meat), beaded shallots, white sugar and maltose and other high-quality raw materials, and the use of advanced technology to make the original taste unchanged, baked into cakes, the skin is crisp and tender, oily but not greasy, sweet and delicious, plus the packaging is exquisite, so it is well-known at home and abroad. In the past, MaWanghe Onion Cake Shop used sand pots to package shallot cakes, which were exported to Malaysia, Thailand, Hong Kong, Macau, Vietnam, Singapore, Germany, France and other countries and regions. In China, it is sold to Shanghai, Tianjin, Xiamen and other places.
