The Chia Te Bakery makes some of the best pineapple cakes around, and it’s got a fascinating history as well. The owner, Chen Tang-peng, grew up watching local boys bringing cakes and bread back to her village after working away.

The care that Chen puts into baking has earned Chia Te a growing clientele and made the bakery one of Taiwan's best-known pineapple cake gift brands. In 2007, Chia Te won first place in a pineapple cake contest jointly sponsored by the Taipei City Government and Taipei Bakery Association.

Chia Te Bakery is a must-visit spot for anyone exploring Taipei, especially those on the hunt for authentic Taiwanese treats. Renowned for its exquisite pineapple cakes, this bakery has been delighting visitors since 1975.

Chia Te has several stores located throughout Taiwan, with their flagship store in Taichung being the most popular one. However, if you cannot travel to Taiwan, you can also purchase these delicious cakes online through their official website or other e-commerce platforms such as Amazon or Shopee.
