What is maple syrup?
- Maple syrup is produced from the sap of the sugar maple, red maple, or black maple trees.
- This type of syrup has a thick, slightly viscous texture similar to honey and is often used in baking, drizzling on desserts, or marinating ingredients for roasting or frying in food preparation.
- You can find it at specialty stores that sell imported goods, large supermarkets, or on e-commerce websites. In this recipe, you can substitute maple syrup with honey or sugar syrup!

Rolling the dough and wrapping the black sesame filling
Sprinkle a layer of cornstarch on a large piece of parchment paper, then take the steamed glutinous rice flour out and sprinkle another layer of flour on top to prevent sticking.
