老婆餅 [Lou Poh Paeng] or Wife Cake - Biscuit
"Wife cake" is the translation of Lou Poh Paeng from Cantonese, and although the meaning is 'wife', the literal translation is 'old lady cake', paralleling the colloquial usage of 'old lady' for "wife" in American English.
This cake is particularly popular in Hong Kong.
