Jiu Zhen Nan Han Pastry Cultural Concept Store

This pastry shop in Kaohsiung offers visitors the chance to make your own traditional Chinese mung bean (wedding) cookies at Taiwan's most prestigious factory; in fact, it's the only place on the island where one can experience this traditional Chinese baking class. After baking your own cookies, visitors can take a tour of the facilities to learn about the rich history of this cookie shop and what they represent in Chinese wedding culture: they are 1 of 6 wedding gifts presented in Chinese wedding tradition. These type of cookies are also gifted during birth, coming of age, birthdays, worship, and the Lunar New Year. The facilities are clean, built from recycled materials, and have solar panels installed. Guests can also try other traditional Taiwanese pastries as part of their elegant high tea set which I strongly recommend.

I came here with my school mate. We were taught how to make a grean bean cakes, took some photos, and make it by ourselves then. We had fun.nJust one thing, the price for one person is 300 ntd is a bit high, in my opinion, for a simple and little amount of material (grean bean, wheat flour) ud83dude1b. Anyway, we had a good day with new experience .

I am absolutely recommend you this place to buy a Taiwanese Pastry or Pineapple Cake for souvenir, if you are a tourist. Even the store is a bit far away from the town, but its really worth to visit. You can make an experiment like cooking lab with your group, they welcome everyone who wanna try to make a cake by them self but ofcourse you have to make an appoinment with them first.

Nice place to drink tea and eat some traditional taiwanese pastries, like mooncake, pineapple cake and eggyolk cake. They have a lot of workshops too, for those who wish to learn how to make the pastries.

Good coffee
