10 Popular Traditional Chinese Confectionery Shops in Klang Valley, Johor, Penang & More

Yong Sheng

Most of the famous traditional Chinese confectionery shops are established for decades with many of them still following the traditional recipe and handmade methods.

Chinese confectionery shops are like the Chinese version of bakery shops but most of them don’t offer wide selections but instead focus on certain pastries they are good at.

The specialty also depends on the area. For example, Penang is famous for its Tambun Biscuit, Teluk Intan for its Chinese Horseshoe Biscuit / Heong Peng, Ipoh for its Kaya Puff, and so on.

Interestingly, we have researched and shortlisted 20 traditional Chinese confectionery shops in Malaysia, and guess what? Half of them are located in Ipoh!

That itself entitles for a dedicated piece so find out which are the 10 popular Chinese confectionery shops in Ipoh here, while read on here as we compile those outsides of Ipoh.

Besides KL and Penang, it’s interesting to note that there are famous Chinese confectionery shops in towns like Kluang, Teluk Intan, and even Sungai Petani.

Without further ado, we present to you the top traditional Chinese Confectionery shops in Klang Valley, followed by Johor, Penang, and the rest.
