Train Cake

Last updated 2026-11-16 — Founded by Liu Yiji, the Train Cake is a famous specialty of Fenchihu, created by combining local tea leaves and traditional tea and pastry-making techniques. Currently, there are four flavors of Train Cake: the first is a sweet green tea flavor. This is not ordinary green tea, but a unique recipe made from locally grown high-mountain oolong tea. The second is a savory mung bean flavor, made purely from mashed mung beans and roasted to bring out the aroma, without any meat added. The third is a savory red bean and braised pork flavor. The last one is purple yam, considered a health food. Regardless of the flavor, the crispy outer crust of each cake is enhanced with high-mountain honey. All four types of cakes are generally baked on the day of purchase and can be preserved for up to five days.
