Internationally-acclaimed baker Wu Bao-chun is about to open his own bakery at Kaohsiung, which is located right opposite the City Hall. And a trial sale of his most popular products just started this week, attracting legions of eager fans.

On the flip side of the bakery window is master baker Wu Bao-chun doing what he does best - supervising the minute details of bread making and kneading the soft dough with a rolling pin.

In a trial sale, Wu hopes to allow customers to get a taste of his famous bread selection, such as this lychee-rose flavored bread.

In a global baker competition this year, Wu's boulangerie creations snagged the championship

Wu's lychee-rose bread, a limited edition, contains powdered sugar meticulously shaped into lychees.

Another limited item is the brandied longan bread, with which the Taiwanese are so familiar.

On this bread is an image of a laughing and smiling child, symbolizing Wu's love and gratitude to his mother.

Another one of Wu's creations is an expansion of the French baguette, completely derived from local ingredients.

Wu's selection also boasts substantial, simple varieties such as onion bread and brown sugar toast.

Wu's bakery, which is conveniently situated right across from the Kaohsiung City Hall, took months of preparation and planning.

The bakery is set up with an elegant and comfortable atmosphere for his customers.

Before it even officially opened, tens of patrons were already lined up to get a taste Kaohsiung's first creative bread.
