Pin Cheng Ji has a video review of five well known double skin milk shops in Shunde, Guangdong province, China. The dish is made with water buffalo milk. Double layer milk 双皮奶 is one of Shunde's must try food icons which I want to try for my own coming Shunde trip.
The first two shops were at Shunde's Pedestrianised Street Mall at Huagai Road 华盖路步行街.
The first was Yen Soon's (Ren Xin 仁信老铺) basic double layer milk which was soft, creamy inside, very sweet and greasy. PCJ recommended eating the versions with toppings to moderate the sweetness. Ren Xin has many outlets including in Guangzhou city.
Restaurant name: Ren Xin Lao Pu 仁信老铺
Address: Huagai Road, Shunde District, Foshan, China, 528300
Tel: +86 757 2222 3311
Second shop Mun Soon (民信 Minxin) was also at the touristy Shunde Pedestrianised Street Mall at Huagai Road. Mun Soon's signature is double skin milk with coconut. Like Yen Soon earlier, the basic version at Mun Soon was also very sweet and doesn't have much milk taste. The coconut blended one had coconut flavour but just as sweet as the basic one i.e. too sweet also. Minxin has many outlets.
Restaurant name: 民信老铺 Minxin Laopu

The third shop, Foon Kei 欢记牛乳牛奶 at Kampong 金榜 precinct was slightly away from the tourist belt. PCJ liked this one as its smooth body had nice dairy milk sweet flavour and fragrance as well as was not overly sugary. It was smooth and creamy but not overly greasy.
PCF also liked Foon Kei's bottled water buffalo milk as it had rich dairy milk flavour. The milk come from Foon Kei's own water buffalo herd.

Address: China, Guangdong Province, Foshan, Shunde District, Jinbang Upper Street 金榜上街
The fourth shop also in the Kampong 金榜 Jinbang area was known as Lo Kai Fong 老街坊双皮奶. The custard skin here was relatively thick, dense and firm. The hot milk was made on order and served steamy hot.
Optional ginger was added, it was a blend of milky, sweet, with ginger heat.
Restaurant name: 老街坊双皮奶
Address: China, Guangdong Province, Foshan, Shunde District, Upper Jinbang Road 金榜上街
Zhou Daniang Niuru 周大娘牛乳(旧寨总店), the fifth and last in this double layer milk trail by PCJ. Zhou Da Liang was popular with influencers. Zhou Daniang Niuru has many outlets.
The texture of their double layer milk was smooth and relatively thick and firm. It was sweet like those at the Shunde Pedestrianised Mall but did not completely mask the dairy sweet flavours. It had a good balance of sugary sweet and dairy sweet.
Restaurant name: 周大娘牛乳 (旧寨总店) Zhou Daniang Niuru
Address: 216 Jinlong Rd, 216, Shunde District, Foshan, Guangdong Province, China, 528300
In his conclusion, PCJ gave his verdict on his favourite out of the five double skin milk that he tasted. Top favourite was Foon Kei in Kampong 金榜欢记牛乳牛奶 for its balanced dairy milk and sweet flavours.
I like it that PCJ does not shy away from giving his candid opinion on the food he tasted, so we have confidence in the quality of his recommendations.
