Today, I had the pleasure of tasting delightful Taiwanese pastries at Kang Chiao Bakery. This charming bakery, founded by a Taiwanese mom who settled in Cambridge, has brought a fresh wave of Taiwanese flavor to the area by combining tradition with innovation. As a girl who loves exploring new things and places, this discovery filled me with excitement and joy.
Delightful pastries
Kang Chiao Bakery also offers an impressive range of ready-to-eat vegetarian dishes, including vegetarian Hakka rice dumplings and braised king oyster mushrooms. The vegetarian Hakka rice dumplings, filled with a mixture of mushrooms and chestnuts wrapped in glutinous rice, bring a unique taste of Taiwanese home cooking. What I admire most about Kang Chiao is their commitment to freshness. All orders are made to request, ensuring each bite is as delicious and authentic as possible. Plus, with delivery service across the UK, you can enjoy a taste of Taiwan no matter where you are.
A Taiwanese cultural experience in the UK
Another remarkable aspect of Kang Chiao Bakery is its contribution to promoting Taiwanese culture. The bakery frequently collaborates with various partners to host events. Previously, they organized a pineapple cake-making workshop in their bakery, where participants could experience the essence of Taiwanese culture firsthand. These events reflect the owner’s passion for Taiwanese culture and allow locals to appreciate the unique culinary traditions of Taiwan. The experience extends beyond baking, often including tea-tasting sessions where participants can enjoy traditional Kung Fu tea and savour the beautiful moments together.
Kang Chiao Bakery is more than just a bakery; it is a cultural experience. It’s a place where the rich flavors of Taiwan are combined with the dedication of a Taiwanese mom to her craft, bringing a piece of her culture to Cambridge. Whether you are a food enthusiast, a vegetarian, or someone who simply appreciates the art of baking, Kang Chiao Bakery invites you to embark on a delightful and delicious culinary journey.
Today’s exploration brought me immense joy and satisfaction. I can’t wait to share this wonderful discovery with others and look forward to more surprises and experiences like this in the future.
