Sachima is a light, chewy-sweet snack made from deep-fried strands of egg-rich dough bound together with a sticky syrup made from sugar or maltose, then pressed into rectangular bars. Originally from Manchu cuisine in Northeast China, Sachima later became widely popular in Cantonese bakeries, where it evolved into a softer, fluffier version often topped with raisins, sesame seeds, or dried coconut. The dough is cut into thin strips, fried until golden, then mixed with syrup and molded while warm. It’s a common bakery treat, snack box item, or festival sweet, appreciated for its honeyed taste and crisp-tender texture. Common variations include milk-flavored, coconut-flavored, and black sesame Sachima.
