These freshly steamed walnut and brown sugar steamed buns are absolutely amazing! Lifting the lid, the sweet aroma of brown sugar mixed with the nutty scent of walnuts fills your nostrils. They're soft yet incredibly chewy; if you squeeze them, they spring right back. The wheat flavor of the buns is infused with the subtle sweetness of the brown sugar, and the steamed walnuts become fragrant, soft, and creamy, blending perfectly with the chewy texture of the buns. Every bite is more delicious than the last; you could easily eat three without wanting more!
In Javanese culture, kue apem holds symbolic meaning as a sign of seeking forgiveness and expressing gratitude, and is often served in traditional ceremonies such as slametan, nyadran, and ruwahan. It is also an important part of the Kirab Apem Sewu tradition in Surakarta, where thousands of apem cakes are distributed as a symbol of unity and a prayer for blessings.
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!
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.

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!

pork floss, chives, and cheese. Just looking at them reveals how delicious they'll taste. When you're in a hurry in the morning, grabbing one is super convenient. The bread is soft, and with one bite, the salty flavor of the pork floss, the crispy chives, and the creamy cheese all explode in your mouth. The more you chew, the more delicious it becomes. It's truly fragrant, and there's no need to bother with the right combination. Finish one and keep another in your pocket for the day—a perfect breakfast and afternoon tea for a working person, right? 😀
Break one open, and the soft, stringy texture stretches out. The coconut milk hidden in the cracks oozes out, fragrant and moist, the aroma of coconut mixed with the aroma of milk piercing my nose. A bite reveals the bread is soft as cotton, the sweetness of coconut milk wrapped around the mellow aroma of wheat, a perfect sweetness that becomes more and more addictive with every chew. I've been trying to manage my weight lately, but with the smell and feel of this softness, how could I resist? So, I grabbed one, then another (with a silly grin), watching my family happily scramble for it. Any worries about losing weight faded away with the coconut aroma—after all, the carb-filled treats that the whole family can gather around to grab aren't always available. Losing weight? I'll worry about it after I finish this plate!
I never thought about making pineapple buns myself, in fact, I never thought I could do it. As for why I do this, of course it’s because of my baby son😅 The crispy pineapple skin, the soft sweet bun, and every bite has a light butter aroma. The recipe with less sugar and less oil makes this "evil" food feel a bit refreshing 😅
