It's a gorgeous and sparkling bright dessert shop 🍨 by the Taichung Civic Square with an open layout. When you order and specify dine-in, they will arrange a table for you, which is nice. There are tables outside as well.
This place popped up on my radar because of their unique glass-blown sugar desserts. They looked divine. The minimum consumption is a drink or an ice cream. Of course, I ordered the ice cream because it was a welcome change and I am so glad I did! It tasted more like a gelato and came with a flaky whale 🐋 cookie.

The chocolate pralines are excellent too, it’s a pity they are pricy and I couldn’t afford to try more. My Taiwanese friend was very excited about their sun cake, they have delicious crispy pastry and innovative runny filling. Not traditional but a great new...
