Peng Cheng Zhen Bakery Introduction
Located near the Hsinchu City God Temple, hidden in the alleys is the nostalgic taste of traditional pastries from the well-established 【Peng Cheng Zhen Bakery】, which has been in operation for over 80 years. With a great reputation and skilled traditional pastry-making techniques, it has become a beloved delicacy passed down through generations in Hsinchu. Now run by the third generation, the bakery continues to develop new flavors that align with contemporary trends while maintaining a strong foundation in traditional craftsmanship. The Zhuchan Cake is the best example of this. Made entirely by hand, it is delicious without being greasy, with a thin skin and abundant filling. A single bite reveals a burst of fragrant scallion oil, complemented by a hint of sweetness. The third generation not only upholds traditional roots and solid techniques but also continuously innovates with a variety of innovative flavors. The seasonal "Peanut Candy Party" is a particularly popular creation. In addition to peanuts, almonds, cashews, walnuts, and other nuts are added to create a joyful, multi-textured nut party that is tasty without being sticky, making you crave more.
