Full month cake or Mi Yue cake彌月蛋糕
A baby's completion of its first month of life
滿月
In recent years, many customs have been simplified, so, on a baby's completion of its first month of life parents just send glutinous oil rice [1] to relatives and eat sesame oil chicken. But the gifts for baby boy and baby girl are different. If a family has a boy, they will prepare glutinous oil rice and red eggs for relatives. That is a symbol perfect. In contrast, the older generation wouldn't do anything to make the baby girl widely known. However, in this generation of low birth rate, girl and boy are our darling. As a result, full month cake [2] and glutinous oil rice are usually given together for both boys and girls.
[1]Glutinous oil rice油飯: A traditional Taiwanese dish that consists of fried rice with dried shiitake mushrooms,
dried shrimp, and soy sauce.

現在很多滿月的習俗簡化了，滿月頂多就是送油飯給親戚朋友、吃麻油雞。
但是男寶寶和女寶寶送的又不太一樣了，若生男寶寶，家中長輩就會煮油飯和紅蛋分贈親友，象徵圓圓滿滿；若生女寶寶，老一輩的觀念就不會張揚。
但這個世代少子化，生男生女都是寶貝，彌月蛋糕和油飯通常會一起贈送。
