Tai Cheong Bakery will be opening its first outlet in Singapore at the basement of Takashimaya on 27 June 2016.  

Tai Cheong is an institution in Hong Kong, and its egg tarts are well-loved by people from all around the globe. Egg tart is one of the must-try local food in Hong Kong, and we are extremely delighted to know that Tai Cheong Bakery’s egg tarts are going to be so accessible for us soon!

While Tai Cheong Bakery has 14 branches in Hong Kong, both locals and tourists alike still flock to the main store along Lyndhurst Terrace in Central to pick up their bakes.

Tai Cheong Bakery’s outpost in Singapore will be a joint venture with Food People – a company by Mr Wei Chan – the managing director of The Pine Garden Bakery – and Mr Han Jin Juan of Palm Beach Seafood Restaurant.

Other than the much-lauded egg tarts, the old school bakery will also be selling pineapple buns (bolo buns), doughnuts, egg rolls, pastries and local cha chaan teng dishes. Much to anticipate; that goes without saying.

Tai Cheong Bakery’s egg tarts are priced at S$7.60 for a box of 4.
