The owner is very enthusiastic ❤️. The instructors work hard to liven up the atmosphere, providing great emotional value. Although I graduated from culinary school and can make these myself, I really enjoyed the atmosphere of making food together with my partner. They're small and not too rich, and the brownie flavor is really great!

A super fun experience! Traditional red turtle cakes with a modern twist. The owner (teacher) is very chatty. We were the only ones in the last time slot of the day, so the one-on-one instruction was amazing! We immediately ordered a savory flavor to try on the spot 😋

The service staff is very kind and patient, and they also provide careful guidance and teaching to the children. The experience is very good and it is super parent-child friendly and recommended.

The Red Turtle Cake DIY experience was incredibly fun! Not only did we get to experience making a traditional Taiwanese delicacy firsthand, but we also learned a lot of interesting facts about Red Turtle Cakes. It was truly a rewarding experience 🤍 Under the guidance of our instructor, we successfully made our own Red Turtle Cakes and even got to eat them right away 😋 It's true that food you make yourself always tastes extra delicious! It's wonderful to see a group of people quietly promoting traditional Taiwanese culture, ensuring these precious cultural elements are preserved and seen by more people 😽🫶🏻

The Mochi (rice cake) making instructor with activities was super friendly from the moment we met her at check-in. During the lesson, each step was very clear, and she also introduced some of Yilan's culture. She and her partner would come around to check if everyone was having any problems with their technique, and both were super positive, encouraging, and patient. I sincerely feel that this price is great value for being able to make two pure rice mochi, drink tea, and have such a wonderful class. The steps are simple, and it feels like anyone can make cute and delicious mochi. I recommend it for people of all ages! Thank you, Mochi instructor, for being so kind and enthusiastic. We had a great time that day because of your hospitality. Best wishes.

I took my kids to participate in the DIY red tortoise cake experience activity during the holiday and felt very happy and fulfilled. The venue is spacious and clean, and the staff are patient and caring, willing to assist guests with their needs. Freshly made red tortoise cake tastes amazing👍👍👍👍👍

Not bad, the staff introducing and running the DIY activities are all great, and the environment is also very good. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Experience: ok

Making red turtle cakes here is pretty fun. The person teaching us was very patient, even though it was our first time.

The owner is very interesting and teaches meticulously. It was a lot of fun making traditional Taiwanese red tortoise cakes by hand. That day, we made peanut and brownie flavors, both of which were delicious. They're small, so you won't get too full. I highly recommend everyone come and experience it!
