I had heard about this rare candy a few months ago. After reading about it on this website, I decided to order some for Christmas. I paid extra for delivery and as of today, we have yet to see it. Website said it was available when I ordered it; needless to say, I am not happy.

If you live in the Raleigh/ Cary area of North Carolina you can get it freshly made at Grand Asia market in Cary. It costs $3.99 for 6pcs. A larger box is also available.It’s really yummy too!

Hi
I am also a lover of Dragon Beard Candy. I live in Melbourne, Australia and have not been able to find it here. I am going to Sydney in Sept 07 and would love to know where I can get it in Sydney. Does any one out there know??

I love dragonbeard candy! They sell ‘em by packs of maybe abt 8 pieces at the small stores in Singapore and it only cost abt usd$1.50/ pack. Oh how i miss it! I wonder whether there’s any stores in MD that sells ‘em :\

If you have ever been to Sydney, you may have been lucky enough to try the dragon beard candy made there. It is really awesome, the best I’ve had, even better than bamboo garden, and all the other street stalls in HK, Singapore or China. The candy can be eaten fresh and soft, or straight out of the fridge when it’s crispy, no preservatives. One is never enough!

I ordered from Yuzumura.com and it was very fast friendly service. The candy is very beautifully packaged. And of course the flavors are so amazing. I have not had Dragon Beard Candy since a few years ago during my last trip to HK and was delighted to locate this site. I must recommend the candy to everyone. It’s a delicious, marvelous and unique experience. You have the soft taste of the hair and then the crispy burst of flavors as everything melts. Exquisite, elegant, magnificant and fit for an Emperor. Wonderful treat.

Does anyone know anything about LongXuSu? I found it at the Chinese Grocer near my house. Is it the same or similar?

Hey “Dragon Beard Cotton Candy” / Ling Ling!

Long Xu Tang is the original Chinese name of Dragon Beard Candy, true, but what you should be aware of is that “Dragon’s Beard Candy” is a direct translation of the Chinese name. “Long” is Chinese for Dragon, “Xu” is beard/whiskers, and Tang is “Candy”. So, it’s quite already for all you English speaking people to call Long Xu Tang “Dragon’s Beard Candy” as it means exactly the same thing.

How do I know this? Why, it’s because I’m Chinese American and I learned Chinese starting practically from birth from my parents and from special programs for ABCs (American born Chinese). I’ve also made numerous trips back to Taiwan where my extended family lives. Trust me, I know my Chinese culture.
