Japan’s popular cream bread shop “Hachitendou” has made its debut in Taiwan. Established in 1933 as a maker of wagashi (traditional Japanese sweets), it now boasts an 82-year history. Six years ago, the third-generation owner took over and developed cream bread with a thin crust and rich filling, turning the shop into a super-popular bakery in Japan that sells over 40,000 cream breads a day — its popularity is beyond imagination.

At the end of November 2015, it launched a limited-time counter at B3 of Taipei Main Station, where it performed exceptionally well. On November 20, it set up a permanent counter at Banqiao World Guanghua Shopping Center, maintaining high popularity daily. In downtown Taipei, it can be purchased at temporary locations at Zhongshan Station and Taipei Main Station.

From March 22 to April 5, during a limited-time period at the Sogo Hokkaido Food Exhibition in Zhongxiao, cream bread made with Hokkaido fresh cream from Hachitendou was sold, along with the exclusive new lemon flavor. Limited daily sales with one per customer only; buy five of other flavors to get one limited-edition lemon flavor — allowing you to taste the wonderful taste of Hiroshima lemons.
