Don't get me wrong, they are not fish but New Year cake of Cantonese style in fish-shape.

New Year Cake Niangao (New Year cake) is a popular Spring Festival treat, made of glutinous rice or millet flour and garnished with anything from bean to jujube paste, assorted fruits and preserves. By tradition, it is believed eating niangao will bring good luck.

Niangao  in Chinese is pronounced as "Better New Year" so generations of Chinese people keep it as one of the typical new year food. Cantonese Niangao is made of glutinous rice powder and brown sugar only which taste sweet and  soft, and fits for everyone. Nowadays chefs make them more attrative to increasingly picky folk by adding  beans or fruits on them and reshape them out of traditional round shape.
