Yuanming Steamed Egg Cake Introduction
Located next to Cheng Huang Temple, Yuanming Steamed Cake is a family-owned business that has been operating for 52 years and is now in its third generation. It originally started on Wuchang Street and later moved to Zhongshan Road. Steamed cake, as the name suggests, is a cake made using steam, which distinguishes it from the baked cakes commonly found on the market. It retains a fine, soft, and delicate texture; the flavor is lighter and not greasy, reminiscent of traditional tastes. Additionally, it contains less sugar, making it not overly sweet, which is suitable for all ages as a healthy food option. The first flavor introduced was "Red Bean," followed by other flavors such as Papaya, Strawberry, Taro, and Braised Pork. Yuanming Bakery's famous "Steamed Cake" is healthy, delicious, and traditional, satisfying countless discerning palates over the decades. In contrast to Western cakes that use a lot of butter, chocolate, spices, and artificial additives, resulting in rich flavors and high calories, Yuanming Bakery's steamed cakes are made using traditional methods with only three ingredients: flour, eggs, and sugar, offering a fragrant, soft, and delicate texture that is not greasy.
