Recently, a newly opened cake shop belonging to Vuong Hac De's personal brand chain called DT.Space is becoming the center of controversy because of its price and quality.
According to customers, cakes here cost from 88 - 118 yuan (about 340,000 - 400,000 VND), the price is too high compared to the general level and not suitable for the majority of people who come to buy.
However, fan Vuong Hac De explained that this store is located on Anfu Street - a famous busy street of Shanghai. Just negotiating the rent and decoration took 3 months, and the cost exceeded 1.5 million yuan (about 5.2 billion VND), so the selling price will naturally be higher than in other places.
Besides, this is a pop-up store, combining sales with promoting brands that are cooperating with the actor, so customers who buy cakes will receive many accompanying gifts such as robbi rabbit models and pendants. Necklaces, tea bags... extremely high quality. If only the gifts were counted, the price exceeded 118 yuan.
Every day, Vuong Hac De's cake shop only opens for sale with a limit of 100 pieces with many flavors for diners to choose from such as matcha, strawberry, chocolate... The cake size is quite large, with many imported ingredients. The flavor of the cake is considered unique and strange, the inside is quite dense but soft, not dry because it is a new cake every day.
The shop also serves a few popular smoothies and teas, beautifully decorated, suitable for young people to check-in.
While the actor's fans are willing to spend money to support their idol, many sarcastic comments say Vuong Hac De is blatantly taking advantage of fans to make money.
Before that, Bach Kinh Dinh and Trieu Lo Tu's cake shops also got into trouble because of their normal quality but "exorbitantly expensive" prices.
