糖画，是一种中国传统民间手工艺，顾名思义，就是以糖做成的画，它亦糖亦画，可观可食。民间俗称“倒糖人儿”、“倒糖饼儿”或“糖灯影儿”。分为平面糖画与立体糖画两种。

所用的工具仅一勺一铲，糖料一般是红、白糖加上少许饴糖放在炉子上用温火熬制，熬到可以牵丝时即可以用来浇铸造型了。在绘制造型时，由艺人用小汤勺舀起熔化了的糖汁，在石板上飞快地来回浇铸，画出造型，民间艺人的手上功夫便是造型的关键。当造型完成后，随即用小铲刀将糖画铲起，粘上竹签。

糖画是地道的民间画种，颇具特色的街市艺术，备受老百姓喜爱的工艺食品。无论庙会集市，还是公园名胜，随处都可见糖画小摊。

Sugar painting is a traditional Chinese folk handicraft that involves creating pictures using sugar. As the name suggests, sugar painting is both a form of art and a sweet treat that can be enjoyed. It is also known as "sugar figurines," "sugar cakes," or "sugar lantern shadows" in Chinese folklore. There are two types of sugar painting: flat sugar painting and three-dimensional sugar painting.

Only a spoon and a shovel are used as tools for sugar painting. The sugar material used is usually a combination of red and white sugar with a small amount of malt sugar. It is heated on a stove until it becomes stringy and is then used to pour and mold shapes. The artist uses a small ladle to scoop up the melted sugar and quickly pours it onto a stone slab to create the desired shape. The skill of the artist's hands is crucial in creating the shape. Once the shape is complete, the sugar painting is lifted with a small spatula and attached to a bamboo skewer.

Sugar painting is an authentic folk art and a unique street market art that is loved by the people. It is a popular craft food that can be found at temple fairs, markets, and parks throughout China.
