Sun Cake (Tai Yang Bing)

Sun Cake (Tai Yang Bing) is the most iconic flaky pastry from Taichung, with a melt-in-your-mouth maltose filling that defines Taiwanese baking. Each cake contains approximately 35 grams of pure maltose, delivering a subtle sweetness that outperforms #6's lower sugar content. Its 16-layered pastry shell is 20% lighter than the typical mooncake, ensuring a delicate texture that shatters on first bite.
