Egg tart history

Even though egg tarts are very popular in Hong Kong, they have a long history in Hong Kong. Even though egg tarts are very popular among Hong Kong people, their history in Hong Kong is still very short. According to amateur Hong Kong history scholar Wu Hao, in the 1920s in Guangzhou, major department stores competed fiercely, in order to attract customers, department store chefs would design a weekly "weekly beauty spot" as a solicitation, which is when the egg tart appeared in Guangzhou.

There is no exact year for the introduction of egg tarts in Hong Kong, but some people say that egg tarts have appeared in Hong Kong bakeries since the 1940s, and that they were introduced to most Hong Kong style cafes from the 1950s to the 1980s. At the beginning of the teahouse egg tarts are relatively large, an egg tart can become an afternoon tea meal. And the flavor was sweet and mellow, fluffy and delicious.

Since the 1990s, the number of cafes that also serve bakery products has gradually decreased, so now only the old cafes have home-baked egg tarts, while other cafes order egg tarts from bakeries to serve their customers. On the other hand, many restaurants in Hong Kong also include egg tarts (small egg tarts) in their snacks. There are also diet-friendly egg tarts, where the custard is made from egg white.
