Hiap Joo Bakery is one of the most famous bakeries in Johor Bahru town and it has been serving people delicious pastries since 1919. Nowadays, the bakery sells buns and banana cakes, they have stopped the production of biscuits. It is usual to queue a long time just to buy their coconut bun and banana cakes. Their cakes and buns sell out quite fast after every baking session. They use the traditional way to bake the buns and cakes by using a wood fire oven. Hence, we noticed it is important that they control the fire when using this method as it might burn the pastries.

One box of banana cake which contains 10 slices of the cake costs only RM9.80. The banana cake was very moist and fluffy. In additional, it is not too sweet and has the strong fragrance of banana. Their coconut bun is also a popular item as it is soft and has a rich amount of coconut filling. The price of 5 coconut buns only costs RM3.80.
