Every connoisseur of Hong Kong's sweet treats would acknowledge the iconic status of the egg tart. Often considered a derivative of the British custard tart, this classic delight comprises a flaky or crunchy short crust, filled with a firm yet creamy egg custard that's richer than its British counterpart. 

Established in 1993, King Bakery has grown from a single store to a network of over 20 outlets, spanning different neighborhoods across Hong Kong. Serving a diverse clientele, this well-loved bakery has successfully withstood the test of time. Recently, the brand has embraced modernization, revamping the design of its stores ensuring a contemporary ambiance for visitors to enjoy their treats.

Numerous establishments across the city purvey egg tarts, each showcasing its unique flavor and texture. Yet, there's an unwritten rule: the best egg tarts are always served warm. Upholding this standard, King Bakery ensures a constant supply of fresh egg tarts, baked throughout the day. The tarts are allowed to rest for 45 minutes on trays before making way for a new batch, guaranteeing customers the optimal taste experience.

Although not claiming supremacy in the realm of egg tarts, the offerings of King Bakery, priced less than HKD 10, present excellent value for money. Regardless of the branch visited, disappointment is unheard of. Concerns about food wastage are put to rest, as warm egg tarts always find eager takers.

The egg tart, a beloved treat among locals, stands out for its affordability, ubiquity, and delectable flavor. There's no prescribed time to savor this delightful treat—it can be enjoyed anytime. It remains a reliable and heartwarming, budget-friendly indulgence that never disappoints.
