Kee Wah Bakery (Chinese: 奇華餅家有限公司) is a chain of bakery stores in Hong Kong, Taiwan, and the United States (Los Angeles and San Francisco). Kee Wah was founded in Hong Kong in 1938 by Wong Yip Wing (1911–1999), they are best known in Hong Kong and overseas Chinese communities for their traditional Chinese pastries and delicacies, notably their Chinese Bridal Cakes and mooncakes.
Hong Kong actor Eric Tsang appears frequently in advertising and commercials for Kee Wah.
While the bakeries located in the U.S are not personally run by Wong Yip Wing, they are being run by his family members. The pastries and products vary between Hong Kong and American branches.
The Kee Wah Bakery in California was established in 1985 and continues to produce freshly baked goods daily. Many well known favorites are the egg tarts and the pineapple buns.
Collaboration
In 2008, Hong Kong lifestyle retail store G.O.D. collaborated with Kee Wah Bakery to design mooncakes for the Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival. G.O.D. came up with presenting the traditional treats in the shape of bottoms in eight different designs, but still filled with traditional white lotus seed paste and salted yolks.[1]
