When Xiong Chuanfa, 34,blows a lifelike tiger out of sugar in just minutes, kids look at him in surprise thinking he is a magician.
Xiong has been blowing sugar figurines (吹糖人)for over twenty years. Blowing sugar figurines is a Chinese traditional folk(民间)art with a history of over 600 years and has been listed as a state-level intangible cultural heritage.
Every morning, Xiong prepares the sugar and drives to different markets in Nanchang to start his magic show.
He heats(加热)the sugar, pulls off a little to make a ball and blows it into different shapes-a rabbit, a monkey, and even Bing Dwen Dwen, the mascot of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics.
People, especially little 'kids, are interested in his skills. he also stops by colleges.

Simon was deeply moved after learning about the art. “I just can't believe the traditional folk art can be kept so well here. I love it. Chinese culture should be spread around the world,” he said.
This art has been passed down for four. generations(代)in Xiong's family. His 6-year-old son often blows sugar balloons, just like what he used to do as a child.
“We will pass on the intangible heritage," said Xiong.
