怡保國民街永成茶室裡的鴻記餅家蛋撻，打響了名堂。每天清早7時開始，餅家前便出現絡繹不絕的人潮，指定要購買新鮮出爐的蛋撻，令老板應接不暇。
在喜慶節日和假期，蛋撻在短短一小時內便賣完。

東主莫鴻飛（67歲）透露，從前他是點心樓的點心師傅，累積了不少製做點心的經驗。他和兒子莫秀傑，每天凌晨2點便起床開工自製蛋撻，每個蛋撻的餅皮多達48層，口感酥脆無比；而蛋黃鮮奶餡更是幼滑鮮美。

鴻記餅家在這茶室裡擺賣了超過20年，加上之前在別家茶室賣蛋撻的經驗，它已累積了至少40年的經驗，因此在怡保，也建立了一定的知名度。
這家蛋撻吸引了不少知名人士到來光顧，香港藝人朱咪咪每次回到怡保，也一定會來此購買蛋撻。
