Summary: On the day of the Little New Year, we offer sacrifices to the Kitchen God. The offerings don't require chicken, duck, fish, or meat, nor cattle, sheep, or other sacrificial animals. We only need to offer some "sugar figurines", allowing the Kitchen God to enjoy some sweetness and speak well of us before the Jade Emperor. An old saying goes, "On the 23rd, sticky sugar figurines, the Kitchen God ascends to Heaven." Zao Tang (Kitchen God's sugar) is a type of malt sugar. When it's pulled into long strips, it's called "Guangdong Tang"; when pulled into flat, round shapes, it's called "sugar figurines". Genuine Guangdong Tang is incredibly hard, unbreakable, and must be chopped with a knife to eat. The texture is very dense and fine.

During the Kitchen God Festival, people traditionally eat dumplings, signifying "farewell dumplings, welcome noodles." Mountainous areas often eat cakes and buckwheat noodles. In southeastern Shanxi, there's a custom of eating fried corn, with the saying, "On the twenty-third, don't eat fried corn, or you'll have a bad start to the New Year." People like to bind the fried corn with malt sugar, freeze it into large pieces, and enjoy its crispy and sweet taste.
