Walnut Mario (Brios)

This walnut Mario bread (also known as chocolate walnut bread or crispy walnut cocoa bread) is covered in chopped walnuts. The first bite releases a burst of nutty aroma, followed by a rich chocolate flavor that fills your nose – not cloyingly sweet, but a mellow cocoa fragrance. The bread itself is soft yet substantial, chewy yet not tough. The aroma of chocolate and the rich flavor of walnuts intertwine, becoming more flavorful with each bite. The interior is fluffy and delicate. When filled with a light cream cocoa filling, the cream's refreshing touch balances the chocolate's richness, while the crunch of the walnuts adds further texture. One bite offers a perfect balance of crunch, softness, and aroma – so delicious you won't be able to stop eating it!

Matcha Mochi Cheese Soft European Style

This vibrant "springtime green" instantly elevates the atmosphere the moment it hits the table! The matcha soft European-style bread has a chewy yet soft crust, and inside is a mochi filling filled with nuts—chewy and smooth with cream cheese. Even when cooled, it's still stretchy and delicate. The aroma of tea and milk intertwines, tantalizing your taste buds. It's so soft, it feels like holding the sweetness of spring in your hands! This refreshing green looks so vibrant; even my friend who doesn't like sweets showed off two. Only my stock market friend saw it and jokingly said, "I know this color all too well!" But I couldn't resist the aroma of the creamy filling, so I secretly grabbed one, and my eyes lit up as I chewed.

Chocolate Lava Mochi Soft European Bread

Gently pull the bread with your hand, and you'll find it soft and fluffy with a naturally light texture. The outer crust is soft and fluffy, and you can even stretch it to reveal its delicate structure. The moment you pull it open, the chocolate sauce inside bursts out with a "whoosh," creating a wonderfully warm chocolate filling that coats the chewy mochi filling, along with crunchy nut pieces. The mochi is bouncy and stretchy, the crunchy nuts balance the sweetness, and the chocolate is rich and creamy. The soft bread sandwiched with the bursting filling and nuts is a perfect combination of soft, chewy, crunchy, and sweet flavors in one bite—pure satisfaction!

Coconut Mini Tarts

The freshly baked crust is so crispy it crumbles, and the aroma of coconut fills your nose with every bite. The coconut filling inside is tender and sweet, and one bite brings you pure bliss!

Red Bean Paste Layered Rolls

When making this red bean paste bread, I deliberately avoided cutting or braiding it, mainly to prevent the red bean paste from drying out after baking in the oven, which would greatly affect the texture. Instead, I layered the red bean paste into the dough, creating a flaky, layered texture similar to puff pastry. This avoided the problem of biting into a mouthful of filling that was cloyingly sweet, and allowed the sweetness of the red bean paste to blend perfectly with the softness of the bread. Every bite offers a delightful combination of creamy red bean paste and fluffy dough, with rich layers that make it incredibly satisfying to eat.

lye bread

Its appearance is truly remarkable! The brown-red crust is shiny and glossy, and the black sesame filling appears at the cut, resembling a flower. The crust is slightly chewy on the outside, yet soft and fluffy on the inside, and the sesame filling is fragrant and rich. It's like a homemade pastry made by our elders—simple yet flavorful, a true home-cooked delicacy. The sweetness of life is all in this bread.

Super Soft Cheese Sausage Buns (Cream Version)

I love making high-hydration doughs, especially for bread—they turn out as soft as little lambs. (I used 625g of flour to make 14 buns.) The aroma while baking is impossible to hide; neighbors often come knocking to ask when the bread will be ready. (Next time, I’ll try a butter version.) I prefer savory bread, so I use less sugar and a bit more salt.

Black sesame nut energy bread (crispy on the outside and soft on the inside)

This European bread is a great choice for a healthy diet. Based on whole grains and black sesame powder, it's rich in dietary fiber, promoting intestinal motility and aiding digestion. Paired with walnuts and raisins, the walnuts provide unsaturated fatty acids, protein, and various trace elements, while the raisins contain natural sugars and antioxidants, making it a nutritious and sugar-free option. Olive oil can be used instead of butter to reduce saturated fat intake. Unprocessed, it retains the original nutrients of the ingredients, providing a strong sense of satiety and helping to control calorie intake. Whether enjoyed as breakfast or a snack, it provides sustained energy while satisfying both taste buds and health needs, making it an ideal choice for those seeking a balanced, low-fat diet.

Cocoa (Chocolate) Cake Without Defoaming

No one can resist the temptation of chocolate cake, especially this Valrhona chocolate cake, which is irresistible. However, cocoa cake is a "baking nightmare" for many people - the two hurdles of fat and consistency alone are enough to make countless people shy away from this kind of cake that is easily "defeated". The cocoa butter it contains is like a "time bomb", which will disintegrate the bubbles in the meringue if you are not careful; and after the cocoa powder absorbs enough water, the batter becomes thick and sticky. If you use a little force when stirring, the meringue that has been whipped with great difficulty may lose its bubbles and collapse. If you want to bake a fluffy cocoa cake that does not shrink, the following method can make it easy for you to control it~
