  Egg Custard Tarts - Best egg custard tart I have had in a very long time. This is a must go place. Everytime I travel up from Wellington I ensure I pick up a box of egg custard tarts. They taste wonderful, pastry of the right consistency and the custard is delicious. Eat them while they are still warm or chill in the fridge, eithet way they won't last long as they are so scrumptious. I have tried custard egg tarts from other retailers but these in my view are the best. Serving staff lovely.

  Delectable taste of egg tart, I must say it's not too sweet and was really crunchy. Hurry up get your deal today on Easter! It's 4+1 for $21.

  This is my favorite egg tart shop in Auckland. The price is high, but the tarts are large and full of flavor. If you want to enjoy them fresh, I recommend visiting early in the morning! The price has gone up quite a bit, so I can’t have them often, but it’s a nice treat once in a while. If you buy four, they come in a box, making them great as a gift too. They also have delicious sponge cake, with the “original” being the best. However, I don’t recommend the slice cakes.
