Fish maw is the commercial term for the dried swim bladders of fish like croaker and sturgeon. It has no fishy taste and absorbs the flavors of other ingredients. The main nutritional component of fish gelatin is collagen.

On October 31, 2024, the founding ceremony of the Fish Gum (Flower Gum) Branch of the China Fisheries Association and the first 2024 Fish Gum (Flower Gum) Industry High Quality Development Conference were successfully held in Nansha, Guangzhou.
