KFC, Cheung Heung Yuen Debut Hong Kong Milk Tea Egg Tart

KFC Hong Kong has teamed up with Cheung Heung Yuen, a nostalgic cha chaan teng with nearly six decades of history, for a limited-edition Hong Kong-style milk tea egg tart launching at 11am on 5 October 2026. The crossover blends the local café’s tea legacy with KFC’s crisp pastry, offering a fresh take on two Hong Kong favourites in one bite.

The new tart combines Cheung Heung Yuen’s milk tea base with smooth egg custard, baked inside KFC’s signature golden, flaky shell. Each tart comes with a small sachet of sweetened condensed milk, so fans can adjust the flavour—keeping the tea’s strong character or stirring in the milk for a sweeter, silkier finish. That flexibility mirrors the customisation often found at traditional Hong Kong tea stalls.

Cheung Heung Yuen, known for its old-school pineapple buns and rich milk tea, is a rare piece of old Hong Kong café culture. The tie-up gives the brand fresh exposure through a major quick-service chain, while allowing KFC to add a distinctly local touch to its menu.

The Hong Kong-style milk tea egg tart will be available after 11am at all KFC branches except the Stanley Plaza, Festival Walk, Chi Fu South District Plaza and AsiaWorld-Expo stores.

  • Add-on price: HK$9.9

Launch-Day and Crossover Offers

To mark the launch, KFC and Cheung Heung Yuen are running several limited-time promotions:

  • Free pineapple bun on 5 October only: Customers who order a single milk tea egg tart at KFC for dine-in or takeaway can redeem one free pineapple bun at either of Cheung Heung Yuen’s two branches. Each store has 100 buns available on a first-come, first-served basis while supplies last.
  • Mutual discounts from 5 October to 8 November: A Cheung Heung Yuen receipt issued within the last seven days qualifies for HK$4 off the new tart at KFC counters. Conversely, a KFC receipt issued within the last seven days earns 10% off any purchase at Cheung Heung Yuen.

Why the Collaboration Matters

Limited-edition food crossovers have become a popular way for fast-food chains to generate excitement and reconnect with local food culture. For Cheung Heung Yuen, the partnership introduces its traditional tea flavours to a wider audience. For KFC, it adds a nostalgic, homegrown twist to a familiar menu item.

The collaboration also highlights a broader trend in Hong Kong’s dining scene: bringing classic cha chaan teng flavours into new formats and settings. For customers, it is a convenient way to enjoy a taste of the city’s café heritage without changing their usual routine.

Fans should act quickly, as the tart is only available for a limited time. The free pineapple bun offer is strictly one-day-only, and all other promotions run only until early November. As always, terms and conditions apply; customers should check official KFC and Cheung Heung Yuen channels for the latest details before visiting.
