Do you know there are many types of buns there? Let\u2019s run it through together!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Melonpan (Japan)<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite bearing the same name as the melon fruit, this sweet bun does not contain any melon inside. However, the melonpan itself looks like a melon, hence the name was given. Typically it is made of dough with a thin layer of cookie crisp on top. Lately, it has started to become a trend where manufacturers are starting to add melon flavouring. In addition to that, other flavours such as custard, maple syrup, chocolate, and caramel are also being used by bakery businesses in Japan. Where to get them? They are typically found almost everywhere in Japan such as street traders, convenience stores and local bakeries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Banh Bao ( Vietnam)<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Banh Bao is a ball-shaped bun that is considered popular in Vietnam. It is not like the usual sweet bun that we usually eat, but this ball-shaped bun is filled with meat ( either chicken or pork), eggs, mushrooms, and onions. Frequently, it can also contain hard-boiled eggs and Chinese sausage. Vietnamese often consume them as a snack during lunchtime and is the main food to be taken at picnics.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Bapao Bun ( Indonesia)<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Originally taken from China, this bun became a popular dish in Indonesia when the Dutch brought it there. While China\u2019s version is popular with pork filling, Indonesian Bapao is known to have minced beef, diced chicken, and red bean paste inside. Apart from meat filling, they also serve in sweet flavours such as marmalade filling, sweet potato, and chocolate. They are commonly sold by cart street hawkers as takeout food.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Pineapple bun ( China)<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pineapple bun has a striking similarity to Melonpan in the sense that it has a fruit name, but the bun itself only contains usually butter, powdered sugar, and egg and it is known to be a popular cuisine in Hong Kong and mostly Chinatowns worldwide. Other common variants that are added are such as custard cream, red bean paste and cut-up coconut.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Our very own beloved bun, coffee bun! <\/b><\/h2>\n<h2><b>( Malaysia)<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are looking for a different type of Malaysian bread, (Gardenia and roti canai are too mainstream!) a coffee bun is the answer! It is a soft sweet bun with a coffee topping and contains butter inside.
