Chinese cuisine is a little different.
Mention the words Chinese food to most people and they tend to think of an assortment of stir-fried dishes, usually accompanied with rice and the ubiquitous cup of tea. While frozen ice concoctions may have originated thousands of years ago in China's snow covered peaks, desserts do not feature prominently in Chinese cooking. There are several reasons for this. Not that the Chinese don't ever crave sweets. A frequent complaint from westerners is that the few sweet Chinese desserts that do exist are too sweet.
