Operating points:

1. Fruit selection: Select fully ripe, hard flesh, upright fruit shape, flat or slightly raised fruit top, no longitudinal grooves, high sugar content, few or no seeds varieties. Remove mechanical injuries and insect fruits

2. Peeling: Currently, most foot operated semi-automatic peeling machines are used. Rotate the fruit peel in a circular motion and remove it. The peeling should be clean, and the peeling should be thin and even<3. Sunbathing: Choose a place with sufficient sunlight, good air circulation, and clean hygiene. Use wooden sticks or bricks to build a frame, with a height of 0.8-1 meters, and lay a layer of dried persimmon leaves on top. Place the peeled persimmon fruits on top of the frame and place a single layer on the foil to expose to sunlight. Cover them with a mat at night to prevent dew and rain. After about 10 days, the fruit flesh will shrink and the top of the fruit will sink. Perform the first flipping, and then flip it every 3-4 days. Pinch the cake at the same time every time. When pinching the persimmon cakes for the second time, the outside will be hard and the inside will be soft. If there is no sweating phenomenon after softening, apply frost and it will be better<4. Frosting: Place the top of the two cakes together, with the calyx outward. Place a layer of dried persimmon skin and another layer of persimmon cakes in a jar, repeatedly stacking until the jar is full. Then seal the jar and place it in a cool and shady place to frost. The frosting on persimmon cakes is related to the ambient temperature, and the lower the temperature, the better the frosting. Therefore, the jar should be placed in a cool and shady place
