Yilan Cake Museum Introduction
"Ilan Cake" - The thinnest cake in the world, with a thickness of only 0.1 cm, light as paper and translucent, crispy and delicious, making it irresistible to eat. It carries a name rich in local sentiment and receives thumbs up from everyone. It is a must-experience teaching program for tourists visiting the Invention Museum. Professional instructors provide hands-on DIY lessons to make ultra-thin cow tongue cakes, covering the brand story, invention motivation, distinguishing cake skins, and inner fillings. Participants learn about the professional knowledge of pastries through the processes of wrapping and rolling the cakes. Within an hour (including baking), participants can complete six pieces of ultra-thin handmade Ilan cakes, which may seem simple but are actually quite challenging! While waiting for the cakes to bake, professional guides will lead everyone to tour the production area for ultra-thin cow tongue cakes, packaging, as well as special production equipment and processes. The Invention Museum covers an area of about 4,000 ping and is the largest cake-making tourist factory in Eastern Taiwan. In addition to providing leisure and shopping for tourists, the first floor displays various cake stamps and presents the story of Ilan through dynamic and static media. The second floor features a transparent production line for visiting and a DIY classroom for the public to experience the fun of making cakes. The museum is designed with a strong Chinese cultural theme, allowing visitors to feel the festive atmosphere of traditional marriage customs. It is a great place for families and friends to visit on weekends. The park has extensive greenery and features cute versions of ox carts, train figurines, a 16-tone gong, and oversized cake molds for tourists to take memorable photos. Additionally, artist Hu Fujin was invited to create a 30-meter long mosaic mural inspired by the unique landscapes and scenery of the Lanyang Plain, using over 400,000 mosaic tiles and taking almost four months to complete. It is currently the longest mosaic mural in Taiwan.
