優仕紳烘焙館 USS Bakery
【Foodholic Niko @ Taipei】
In the past, whenever it was a family member or friend's birthday, we always chose cakes from Red Leaf. But since today was a last-minute decision to eat cake, we had to order from a bakery that I would pass by on the way home from work to try out other birthday cakes.
"Yoshin Bakery" is located on Park Road, near Taipei Main Station, just a 1-minute walk from exit M8. The storefront doesn’t look very eye-catching, and it's considered an old-school bakery (I found out it was established in 1990, so it has been around for over 30 years).
"Yoshin Bakery" not only sells birthday cakes but also various breads and pastries. If there are banquet or meeting needs, you can also order bento boxes and snacks for catering from them, making them quite diversified in operations.
What made me choose this bakery for the birthday cake was not only its convenient location but also the fact that they can make cakes up to 10 inches or even 12, 14, and 16 inches. Many fancy cake shops nowadays only make cakes up to 8 inches, and larger cakes either aren't made or require booking many days in advance. So being able to order a 10-inch cake on the same day is really great!
Yoshin Mocha Jazz Cake 10-inch $1200
The cake base is chocolate-flavored, with filling made up of peach kernel, egg pudding, and mocha cream. It is topped with macarons and strawberries, and it looks really nice!
P.S. I might be used to the plain-looking Red Leaf cakes, but today when buying this cake, my family said, "Wow! This one looks pretty nice!"
The cake base was quite moist, which is great because I really don’t like dry cakes. I also loved the pudding inside, combined with the walnuts on top, the overall flavor was delicious!
However, the whipped cream part was just average because Red Leaf’s whipped cream is really hard to beat.
If there’s a need for another birthday cake in the future, I would be willing to come back and buy from here again.
