If you could only have one BreadTalk item for the rest of your life, and you pick the pork floss bun, you have to tune into this exciting launch. Bao’s Pastry, a popular bakery chain from China, will be opening their very first outlet in Paya Lebar Square’s Scarlett Supermarket. FYI, the brand is also known as Bao Shi Fu!
This means that you don’t have to travel all the way to China to get your hands on their iconic Xiao Bei Crispy Seaweed Floss Cake! Unlike a regular pork floss bun you’ll find in most bakeries here, this bake boasts a pillowy and soft chiffon cake-like texture.Â
When you give the pastry a good squeeze, you will be greeted with creamy mayonnaise oozing out of the centre, which gives the bun a nice savoury touch. Adorning the exterior of the bun are generous amounts of cottony, sweet pork floss, and strips of seaweed for extra umami.Â
If you’re not big on pork floss buns, here are some of the other popular items that you might be able to get when they open here: Taro Egg Tarts, Chestnut BBQ Buns, Bacon and Cheese Salad Tarts, and Butter Mochi Bun.Â
Though the date of the store’s official opening hasn’t been confirmed yet, we will be sure to update this article when more information is out.
For more good bakes, check out Divine Bites in Pasir Ris Central Hawker Centre for $2 butter croissants, mochi muffins, scones and more. If you’re big on chewy and soft shio pan, check out our shio pan ranking to see if your favourites have made it to the list!Â
