Ba Dat chung cakes: The taste of home spreading everywhere

In the early morning in Tan An village, Hung An commune, the scent of ginger leaves and fresh sticky rice fills the air, signaling the start of a day of making Ba Dat chung cakes. From a small facility within the local Veterans' Association, the Ba Dat brand has grown and expanded, now reaching customers both domestically and internationally.

Ba Dat chung cakes come in various flavors, customized to customer orders.

Ba Dat chung cakes carry deep significance, tied to the land that nourishes people and serves as a refuge for soldiers returning from war. Despite facing hardships during the Covid-19 pandemic, the facility was revitalized thanks to the support of the local Veterans' Association and the local government.

When e-commerce became widespread, Ba Dat chung cakes entered the online marketplace, opening up a vast new market. Today, they are sold not only across Vietnam but also exported to countries like Japan, the United States, and China. The facility now sells approximately 500 million cakes annually, a number that surprises even those directly involved in production.

Ba Dat chung cakes are made from carefully selected ingredients, including premium sticky rice, traditional black pigs, and fresh dong leaves, cooked over a wood fire for eight hours to preserve their authentic flavor. Technology has not only facilitated sales but also connected the facility with suppliers, creating a stable supply chain.

Ba Dat chung cakes have become a point of pride for the people of Tan An, carrying the taste of their homeland to every corner of the country, reminding people of tradition and the enduring spirit of soldiers.
