[Evaluation Valid Period: 2023/08/22-2026/08/21] A-Cong Shi is the founder of Taiwanese taro crisp. He entered the industry in 1960 and has always insisted on using local ingredients, incorporating local crops into every pastry with his own hands, allowing everyone to taste the flavor of his hometown. He firmly believes that "if making a pastry can support a field, allowing it to continue to bloom and bear fruit through spring, summer, autumn, and winter," then he will continue to do so, falling in love with his hometown's land and crops for a lifetime. He will continue to use his profound pastry-making skills and local ingredients to develop brand-new pastries, aspiring to "ignite greater Taichung into a capital of baking culture and achieve a new creative hometown for Taiwanese pastries" to find a new path for local industry and culture. A-Cong Shi has been making pastries for over half a century, during which he has created many Taiwanese local specialty pastries. He pioneered the taro crisp, a national banquet delicacy, the first Taiwanese pastry with a unique Taiwanese shape, the Mazu pastry and Ping An ice cake from the "Protecting the Nation and People" series, as well as the popular "Gong Gong Xiang" taro sticks and scallion cakes for group purchases. A-Cong Shi is dedicated to promoting Taiwanese local specialty pastry culture and contributing to the local community. In his hometown, Daan District, Taichung City, he established the [A-Cong Shi Taro Culture Museum] to inherit and continue the local industry and culture, allowing the public to understand traditional pastry culture.
