That’s why we’re sharing four popular and uniquely innovative tofu pudding shops across Taiwan for your reference！

1. Da Tie Tofu Pudding

The tofu pudding served in adorable robot bento boxes is enough to catch everyone’s eye！ The owner of this Da Tie Tofu Pudding shop used to work in the “ironworking industry” and developed this silky and delicious tofu pudding with an “ironman spirit.” Each bowl of Da Tie Tofu Pudding is generously filled, looking super hearty. In addition to regular toppings, the most unique option is the coffee-flavored tofu pudding, served with OREO cookies and ice cream—an unprecedented combo that’s very appealing！

3. Yuan Lai Tofu Pudding

The bowl is filled with a thick layer of brown sugar shaved ice, topped with soft and fluffy tofu pudding—super generous portions！ The highlight of Yuan Lai Tofu Pudding is that the tofu pudding and toppings are served separately.

You pour them into the tofu pudding bowl yourself when eating, which adds a fun twist！ The abundant toppings, along with the soft, silky, aromatic handmade tofu pudding and the sweet yet not cloying brown sugar shaved ice, make it a real treat in the summer！ Both chilled and hot tofu pudding come with three toppings for just 50 NT—great value！
