SYMBOLIC MEANINGS
Thai sweets are made from refined recipes that have been inherited from generation to generation, which take time and neat and skillful preparation. They not only symbolise sweetness, but also represent eating culture, preciousness and patience. Many "Khanom Thai" include the word "thong", which literally means gold in Thai, indeed some are even decorated with gold leaf to signify prosperity and high esteem.
