Yuan Li Hsuan Black Sugar Cake Old Shop Introduction
Before Taiwan's retrocession, the Penghu Islands were home to many Ryukyu people and Japanese confectionery shops. At that time, Chen Gongyuan and his son apprenticed at a confectionery shop run by the Japanese, allowing them to meet many Ryukyu pastry masters, while also teaching Chen Gongyuan and his son how to make Ryukyu cakes, which is now the popular brown sugar cakes found throughout Taiwan.
