5. Maison Kayser
Originating from France, Maison Kayser produces some of the most delectable bread in Hong Kong.

Using traditional baking techniques blended with contemporary flavours, it’s no wonder the shop is always pumping.

6. Plumcot
This Tai Hang bakery was set up by husband-and-wife-duo, Camille Moënne-Loccoz and Dominique Yau. Together they specialise in bringing Parisien flavours to Hong Kong. The artisanal pastries and breads are made using directly imported ingredients from France and, boy, will they be a testament to your indecisiveness! Be sure to try the almond croissant and the brioche in their namesake flavour— Plumcot (plum and apricot). Drop by the store on the weekend, when they offer a larger selection of pastries—as if it wasn’t hard enough to choose already! Also, for the adventurous eaters, we dare you to try a scoop of ice cream in unusual flavours such as tofu, blue cheese, and toasted baguette!
