Select unripe grapefruit fruit with moderate size and smooth skin.
接着，用柳叶刀等工具将青果切成薄片，这一步需要精湛的刀工，确保切片均匀、薄厚适中。
Then, using a lancet and other tools, the fruit is sliced into thin slices, which requires exquisite knife work to ensure that the slices are evenly sliced and of moderate thickness.
然后，便是最为关键的雕刻环节。雕刻师们手持各种型号的柳叶尖刀，在薄薄的果片上施展绝技，雕出各种精美的图案。这些图案丰富多彩，有花鸟鱼虫、人物故事、山水风景等，每一个图案都栩栩如生，仿佛在诉说着一个故事。

These patterns are rich and colourful; there are flowers, birds, fish and insects, character stories, landscapes, etc. Each pattern is lifelike as if telling a story.
雕刻完成后，将果片进行漂洗，去除苦涩味。随后，放入锅中煮沸，进一步去除杂质。接着，拌上优质白糖或蜂蜜，使果片充分吸收甜蜜的味道。
After the carving is completed, the fruit slices are rinsed to remove the bitter taste. Then, put it in a pot and boil to further remove impurities. Then, mix with high-quality white sugar or honey so that the fruit slices fully absorb the sweet taste.
最后，将果片晒干，经过这一系列复杂的工序，雕花蜜饯才算制作完成。
Finally, the fruit slices are dried, and after this series of complex processes, the carved preserves are completed.
