Tanghulu is sweeping TikTok. The traditional Northern Chinese treat is typically made using fruit covered in hard candy skewered by a bamboo stick. Chinese hawthorn—a small, apple-like fruit—has long been used for traditional tanghulu, but lately vendors and TikTokers alike have expanded the tanghulu horizon with all sorts of fruit and even meat! Here are 5 TikTok tanghulu recipes you need to try ASAP.

Strawberry is one of the most popular fruits to get the tanghulu treatment. Just melt sugar in water and heat it up. Then, coat your strawberries in the melted sugar and set them aside to harden. The result is a shiny, red snack that gives a major crunch with each bite. You could even get fancy with it and make a strawberry rose tanghulu.
