Guang Tai Men Mille-feuille in Dongmen Shenzhen: A Delicious Childhood Favorite

Guang Tai Men Mille-feuille in Dongmen Shenzhen: A Delicious Childhood Favorite

To be honest, most bakeries in Dongmen don't offer anything particularly distinctive, and many of their products look pretty similar. I wasn't sure what to buy that day, so I decided to give something a try based on recommendations from other customers online. I have never thought that one bite was all it took to win me over! The Mille-feuille at Guangtai Men is seriously delicious!

Eye-catching Donut Shop Opens at MixC Shenzhen: Unique Flavors Worth Trying

Cheryl Kong | 2026-09-13

I didn’t expect to find a brand-new donut shop here in Luohu. The shop itself is really eye-catching, with its warm yellow color immediately standing out and making me want to take a closer look. 🍩💛 The donuts on the shelves also looked incredibly cute and well-presented, which caught my attention right away.

The aroma was just as tempting, so I couldn’t resist stopping by to have a look. The donuts were small and cute, and the prices seemed fairly approachable, so I quickly picked up a few to try.

🧡 A Wide Variety of Unique and Creative Flavors

What surprised me most was the range of flavors. There were so many options, and quite a few featured combinations that aren’t commonly seen in China, which made me even more curious to try them.

They even had sage lemon, red bean butter, pistachio, and corn with meat floss. Just looking at the display made me want to try every single one.

🍍 We Tried Three Flavors

We chose three flavors to sample:

  • Sage Lemon: Refreshing and slightly sweet-tart. I couldn’t really pick out a distinct sage flavor, possibly because I’m not very familiar with what sage tastes like, but the overall combination was quite enjoyable.

  • Bacon Topping: A surprisingly unique combination of sweet donuts and savory bacon.

  • Original Flavor: Sweet, fragrant, and pleasantly chewy.

🛍 Beautiful but Slightly Overdone Packaging

The packaging was very pretty and fit the autumn theme perfectly. It did feel a little excessive for such small items, though I also understand that this was likely part of the special packaging for the shop’s opening.

I’ve walked past the shop a few times since then, and they’re now using regular paper bags instead. So if you visit later, don’t be surprised if the packaging looks a little different from what you see in my photos.

📚 Overall Experience

Overall, I found the flavors quite interesting and a little different from the donuts I usually come across. They tend to be slightly sweet, but I still enjoyed trying the different combinations.

However, three small donut balls cost over RMB 30, which feels a little pricey for the portion size. For me, the value for money is more suitable for an occasional treat rather than something I’d buy regularly.

Hopefully, they’ll offer some promotions or special deals in the future — I’d definitely be more tempted to come back then. 😆
