Versions associated with Ningbo, Shanghai, and Wenzhou mix rice flour with glutinous rice flour and sugar, sometimes with red-bean paste, dates, osmanthus, or sesame. It is '''not''' Cantonese [[Ma Lai Gao]] (马来糕 / Malay sponge cake), '''not''' sticky New Year [[Nian Gao]], and '''not''' [[Fa Gao]] (发糕), though all are steamed cakes in a broad sense.&lt;ref name=&quot;wp&quot;&gt;[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Song_gao English Wikipedia]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> == Characteristics ==<br /> <br /> Pale, airy crumb with gentle chew; lightly sweet; toppings may include osmanthus, sesame, or dates; sold in rounds, molds, or cut wedges.<br /> <br /> == Ingredients (overview) ==<br /> <br /> Rice flour, glutinous rice flour, sugar, water; optional red bean, osmanthus, sesame, dates.
