Teng Wun Bakery & Confectionary
Kuala Kubu Bahru
Kuala Kubu Bharu is one of the historical sites in Hulu Selangor. It was here that a dam burst after the area was hit by a heavy downpour devastating the town killing 33 people including Cecil Ranking, the then District’s Magistrate and Tax Collector Officer. It said that the flood was a curse put on the town after Cecil Ranking shot a white crocodile; the guardian of the river.
History aside, this sleepy hollow is a quaint little town that has some fabulous places to eat at. One of these places is Teng Wun Bakery And Confectionary, a bakery that was established in 1979.

Famous Offerings
Many people have mentioned Teng Wun Bakery And Confectionary. To some it is a ritual to pack some of their famous cakes and puffs before heading up to Fraser’s Hills. Kuala Kubu Bahru is at the foot of Fraser’s Hills. Teng Wun Bakery And Confectionary is famous for their kaya puffs, sponge cakes, butter cakes, and my personal favourite; durian cakes.
Famous kaya puffs.
Many have recommended their kaya puffs and yes they are delicious. I personally am not a fan of kaya puffs but I had three of them here. My favourite amongst the lot is their durian cakes. The cakes are fresh and real durian is used (unlike most bakeries that use more flavouring than durian). It’s like scooping durian and eating it with the cake. The durians used here come from the nearby Batang Kali jungle. One thing to note is that the durian cakes are only available during the durian season.
Super delicious durian cakes.
Should you be visiting Kuala Kubu Bahru or Fraser’s Hills, do visit Teng Wun Bakery And Confectionary and try out some of their lovely cakes and puffs.
