The next time you visit JB City Square, make a pit stop at Ming Ang Confectionery. The popular Malaysian brand, which has been around since 1992, offers freshly baked traditional Chinese pastries!

Popular picks include their old-school Tausa Peah (RM1.30), Heong Piah (RM1.60), and Wife Cake (RM2.90). Fans also love their Portuguese Egg Tart (RM3.40) for its flaky crust and smooth custard centre. You get to save a bit if you buy them in a box of six.
The bakery is equally known for their Golden Milk Pastry, which comes in flavours such as Mung Bean (RM4.90) and Red Bean (RM4.90). You can also get them as a box of six for RM28.20. These pastries are buttery and milky, with a tender crumb that melts in the mouth.
Everything is baked fresh on-site, so you’ll be welcomed by the lovely fragrance of the goodies as soon as you enter the store.
The shop often sports long lines during the weekends, so we suggest dropping by for your pastry fix when it’s less crowded, preferably on a weekday.
Besides these fresh pastries, the shop also sells dried pantry staples, including snacks and 3-in-1 beverages. They have six outlets across Malaysia, including one in Sabah.
In related news, Ming Ang Confectionery has just rolled out a new cake: Pandan Yam Layer Cake! The viral cake flavour is only available at their City Square and Bukit Indah outlets from Fridays to Sundays.
