Red-crested white cranes and turtles are considered symbols of healthy long life. 丹頂鶴與龜的甜點


A hexagonal pattern symbolizes the turtle shell.
You will find the two animals together in auspicious paintings and printed matters.
Hello rtc, Japanese pastries are so beautiful, and you have pointed out their symbolic meaning. In Taiwan we have some Japanese stores with imported sweets, but nothing so attractive and delicate as these.
