Taro Paste
A soft, pillowy milk bread bun filled with a sweet, creamy taro root paste and finished with a signature purple swirl.
Our Taro Swirl Bun is a beloved Chinese bakery classic. We use a traditional Tangzhong (water roux) starter to create a bread that is exceptionally soft, airy, and stays fresh for days.

The heart of this bun is our house-made taro filling. We steam real taro root until tender, then mash it with a touch of sugar and cream to create a smooth, earthy purple paste that isn't overly sweet. The exterior is decorated with a delicate purple lattice or swirl that hints at the delicious filling inside.
A light, earthy treat
Taro is prized in Chinese baking for its unique, nutty vanilla-like flavor and beautiful natural color. This bun is perfect as a light breakfast or a satisfying snack, especially when paired with a hot cup of Oolong tea.
