I Jy Sheng 一之軒 was established in 1980. It's a Taiwanese bakery that needs no introduction for the locals, and even many international clientele will recognize their sign.
Anyway, I'm not going to go into depth about the bakery; I normally don't review bakeries. I usually just enjoy them without making reviews. But there are two items that I wanted to share, especially my favorite item. Their Cheese Tart Dulce de Leche is one of my absolute favorite items in any bakery in Taiwan. It's a flat cheesecake (in the shape of a tart) with a layer of caramel on top. The cheesecake tastes like a Western version and the generous layer of caramel on top will ensure that every bite is sweet and delicious. If it wasn't for this item, I wouldn't bothering making this review.
My second favorite item of theirs is their Cheese Tart Blueberry Filling. I don't know why they say cheese, because I don't taste any cheese; it's actually a pudding tart with a very thin layer of blueberry filling on the bottom. My only gripe is that I wish there was more blueberry filling in it, but it's still a tasty item that I have purchased countless times because the pudding and crust is also satisfying.
Their Portuguese Egg Tarts deserve a mention. They may look totally legit from the outside, but the filling isn't authentic; you'll still have to go to Macau to get the super-delicious real deal, but for a Taiwanese version, it's a tasty egg tart that I'd still recommend while in Taiwan.

They have many locations, below is just one I chose because it has a nice on-sight seating area. To see all their locations, use their Chinese name (一之軒) on Google Maps; using their English name won't do anything for you.
