It is very eye-catching; more than 200 pieces of banana carrot cake were sold within 2 days of its launch.

Qiu Zhuying, director of the Taiwan Banana Research Institute, said that bananas can be eaten in different ways at different ripeness levels, and their flavors are varied. This year, they specially developed "Green Banana Carrot Cake", combining green bananas with traditional food carrot cake to make In the process, the starch of the rice and the starch of the green banana are heated and fused, and some fine pieces of green banana pulp are retained, so that the flavor of the green banana carrot cake is softer and more delicate, and the taste is Q-bounce.

It is slightly sweet and has a unique taste. During the festival, the stalls are set up for trial sales, which are very popular with consumers.
