I want to introduce you to two interesting cake shops I visited in Yunlin. The first one is Cake Towel Cafe, located in Huwei where I currently live. This unique café showcases the art of transforming a simple towel into an amazing cake or other creative designs. Towel cakes make for a nice and unique gift for someone special.
Despite Huwei being a countryside area with fewer tourists, Cake Towel Cafe is a creative and interesting place worth a visit. In addition to the towel art, you can also enjoy delicious cakes and drinks. Although I didn't try their food, I was fascinated by the craftsmanship displayed in their towel creations.
Cake Towel Cafe also offers DIY classes where you can learn to make your own towel decorations. They have a variety of towels, robes, and other products available for purchase as well. Although the café had been temporarily closed, it reopened at the beginning of 2019.

Another bakery worth mentioning is Chan Chau Ku Ranch, located in Lunbei, Yunlin. This famous bakery specializes in desserts made from fresh milk. The desserts are incredibly tasty and the use of fresh milk adds a unique flavor.
Chan Chau Ku Ranch is not just a bakery but also a great place to visit with kids. They can enjoy running around the ranch and take funny pictures with the many cow sculptures found throughout the premises. In addition to the sculptures, the ranch also houses a few cows. It's not common to see cows grazing on grasslands in Taiwan, so it's a unique sight to behold. The ranch also features fish ponds, adding to the overall experience.
The bakery at Chan Chau Ku Ranch offers a wide selection of desserts to satisfy your sweet tooth. One of my favorites is definitely the egg tart, which I highly recommend trying.
Visiting Chan Chau Ku Ranch provides an opportunity to teach children about cows and milk, allowing them to learn more about animals they may not encounter in their everyday lives. The lively atmosphere and delicious treats make it a popular destination for families.
