Yangtze Evening News / Purple Cow News reporter learned from the Tourism and Culinary Institute of Yangzhou University on the 11th that the culinary team of the hospital recently came to Taixing, the birthplace of Huangqiao baked cake, to conduct red research, and when digging up the red story behind the Huangqiao baked cake, it was found that the Huangqiao baked cake was unknown to everyone in the local area and even in the surrounding areas, but the relationship between the Huangqiao baked cake and the Battle of Huangqiao was little known.
Recommend Yellow Bridge Baked Cake
The team members learned that the Yellow Bridge Cake was named after the Battle of Huangqiao in October 1940. When the war was raging, the local people rushed to make baked cakes day and night, braving artillery fire to send the burnt cakes to the front line positions of the New Fourth Army. Today, the Huangqiao Battle Memorial Hall of the New Fourth Army in the town is the revolutionary traditional education base of Jiangsu Province, and the Huangqiao Ancient Town is therefore listed in the national red tourism classic scenic spot.

"Our survey results show that the proportion of people who have eaten Huangqiao baked cake is very high, reaching 72.21%. However, in the cognitive survey of the origin of the Yellow Bridge Cake, less than 10% of the public knew the relationship between the Yellow Bridge Cake and the Battle of the Yellow Bridge. Team member Yuan Kaihua told reporters that this reflects the dilution of the red story behind the current food culture, and the red gene contained in the food is gradually fading.
