90 Dessert House Introduction
The first dedicated canelé store in Chiayi was established in 2020 by a young man in his 90s who loves making desserts. He chose the canelé, known as the "Angel's Bell," as the theme for this venture. Although located in a quieter area on Guangcai Street in Chiayi City, the shop has invested in hiring a renowned design company, using an elegant blue color scheme paired with dark wood tones and dreamy white curtains to convey a vintage French ambiance. If you happen to walk down this street, you will be surprised to find a dessert shop that exclusively sells canelés. Upon entering, you can feel the warm sweet aroma emanating from the freshly baked goods. As a specialty canelé store, 90 Dessert House not only offers the classic flavor but has also developed various fillings like matcha, coffee, apricot, cocoa, Earl Grey, roasted tea, and Thai milk tea. Occasionally, they launch limited edition items, such as the Mini canelé, which is more challenging to make but perfect for a single bite. They also introduce mixed flavor gift boxes during different holidays. Due to the pandemic, currently, there is only one pastry chef at 90 Dessert House, and indoor dining is not available. If you have a preferred canelé flavor, it is best to make a reservation in advance. Image source: Chiayi City Government Tourism Department | Photography: Margot
