it's this wrapper but a blue mark in the middle instead of the red one shown here :

the cake in question is a cooked pu. it leaves a very sweet after taste at the back of the throat. the sweetness is very distinct. it lingers around for a bit. a 2000 vintage cake.

This is the blue mark that I have. Of course it is the on on the left. Only pic that I have on hand but if you would like more I could take some later.

Nice looking wrapper. Is the big mouth teapot also yours? What do you brew in it?
