Very old shop which produces good taro cakes and pastries. All their product are good and worth buying. This is also good for vegetarian. It's a must to visit this bakery when you're in Keelung City. It should be rated as Michelin because of the taste of their biscuits, pastries and everything else in their shop. This shop is quite close to Renai Market.

Traditional pastry shop with cheap, and yummy snacks. We bought pineapple cakes, taiyang bing, taro balls, cheese balls, and the taro snowflake cake. Solid (7/10)!
🍠Taro balls: Taro paste balls which are nutty, slightly sweet with taro bits. They'd go lovely with tea, and other snacks. Note: These are not on the shelves, and kept chilled behind the counter. Just let the receptionist know how many boxes you'd like!
🧀Cheese balls: Cream cheese, with a cookie biscuit base
🍰Taro snow cake: Covered with coconut shavings, and redbeans in the cake
🍍Pineapple cake: Really decent, especially for the price point
☀️Taiyang bing: Milk custardy insides

I'm impressed with the taro balls here. So yummy! Do check out this place if u love taro balls. Very thick and not so sweet, can feel the original fragrance of taro.
The taro products here are of high quality. The taro pudding is amazing and 10/10. The "taro ball" is also very nice. Perfectly sweet and the texture if "doughy" and moist. If you like taro desserts, this place is a must if you're in "Keelung"
Tried their signature taro paste mini cakes/balls. 50NT for a box with 4 in it. Not bad at all. Just nothing to write home about. They had many other items as well that were non taro but we just wanted to try this since it seemed raved about. Get it only if you happen to be around the area, otherwise I would say don't bother going out of your way.
This is a local bakery with lots of amazing pastries and cakes. I love taro cakes which is authentic and full of taro splendor. People here are very helpful and friendly. I will definitely visit again when I drop by Keelung.
I love most of the pastries here. They are very good with all the traditional Taiwanese style pastries. They are also creating innovative creative delicious new ones.
If you like taro, you have to visit here. If you like to taste Taiwanese snacks, you also need to come here. The snakes I shared are extremely delicious.
