Sugar painting is a kind of snack and also one of the traditional Chinese art forms. It started from the Ming Dynasty and became popular in the Qing Dynasty. At that time, many people made a living through sugar painting, setting up stalls (摊位) in busy streets or public places. Now people can still see it in many areas of China. The sugar painters usually sit before a wooden table. On the side of the table, there is a wooden plate with a revolvable arrow (可旋转箭头) on it. The plate is painted with different pictures. After paying, the customers (顾客) turn the arrow and wait till it stops. The picture pointed by the arrow is the one that the painters will make.
Sugar painting is different from usual painting. The sugar painters use syrup (糖浆) as the "paint", a spoon as the "paintbrush", and a smooth slab (板) as the "paper". To make the syrup, the painters have to make sugar hot before painting. Since the syrup may become solid (固体的) if it cools, the painters have to work very quickly. They move the spoon full of the syrup up and down, left and right. Soon a sugar painting of an animal, a flower or a bike is finished.
