Product information
Wow bao
These molten chocolate bao'buns are, in truth, a small but historic breakthrough.
The itsu [grocery] mission is to dream up new and wonderful food ideas with our partners in Japan, Korea and China. Every now and then the team hit a bullseye; this is one such lucky example.
After more than 50 failed trials, we managed to get rich quality chocolate to flow, molten warm, from inside the fluffy bao'bun. We also made a salted caramel flavour blended with umami miso, which blew our socks off.
Serve them hot with ice cream or fruit; dust them [cappuccino style] with chocolate powder, or for the ultimate treat, plant a birthday candle dead centre.

Really impressed
Thought Id give them a go as Id never tried sweet bao buns before! Absolutely delicious, firmer and more chewy than I was expecting and a lovely light dessert option.

Lovely
I've had their savoury bao buns so knew what to expect on that front. Chocolate is nice and gooey. Easy to heat up. Like others said, make sure you let it cool down!
