The Sugar Blower

  • Photographer
    Chan Yi-Hua, Taiwan

Sugar blowing is a kind of Chinese traditional skill. The sugar blowers can blow the sugar into different shapes of animals, flowers and insects with wooden molds.
In this photo, the old sugar blower invited a little girl to join the skill to blow the tiny sugar tube. Few seconds later the sugar in the wooden molds became an animal shape that the little girl wanted.
