<p>Wealthy Chinese-Filipinos are snapping up rice cakes decorated with gold and diamonds to celebrate the Lunar New Year in the hope of attracting good luck in the Year of the Rabbit.</p>
<p>The rabbit-shaped glutinous rice cakes sell for between 500 and 2,700 dollars and are covered with 24-carat gold foil and a few small diamonds.</p>
<p>The creator of the custom-baked sweets, Angelito Araneta Jr, says they are meant to attract wealth as well as secure good ties with friends and kin.</p>
<p>Chinese-Filipinos traditionally share glutinous rice cakes with family and friends to celebrate the Lunar New Year, which falls on Thursday this year.</p>
