From the first generation's classic offerings such as plain shaved ice, red bean ice, and rice cake ice to the third generation's development of Hakka kumquat jam ice, Yee Shun's shaved ice has seen its price rise from ten cents to thirteen dollars per serving. The traditional ice molds, rooted in their original purpose, continue to stand the test of time, accompanying the prosperous old streets of Xinpu through the years.
Success Street in Xinpu Township, Hsinchu County, was once a bustling old street, but now, as you drive through, you'll find that very few shops are still in operation, creating a desolate atmosphere that feels as if it has always been a quiet residential area. The only exception is Yee Shun Ice Cream Factory, which opens its doors early in the morning and has steadfastly stood here for over a century.
