Nantun District, Taichung City｜巴蕾麵包 大業店

Together with Le Roi Bakery, these two shops are the best places in Taichung to buy baguette, bagels, croissants, and many other European goodies, made with wonderful ingredients, and with great care and consistency. Their peeled pepper-stuffed bread ring is absolutely fantastic, and their various croissants are truly to die for!

Hands down to the best taro pudding cake in town !! It’s rare to find this kind of cake nowadays. Plus they use Japanese cream, it makes the cake tasted fresh and light. And there’s A LOT of smashed taro inside, I can feel it dancing with the pudding in my mouth. The sesame cake is awesome too!

The best European bread in Taichung. This is not your sweet Taiwanese bakery, this is real savory bread. Really really good baguette, really good cake, really good croissants, they're really good at doing what they do.
