An pan koala
Japanese bakeries do a very good job of making things look cute, beautiful or at least interesting. This is an An Pan (a bun filled with sweet adzuki bean paste) with a stylized koala face on top. What a koala has to do with an pan I am not sure but there was also a cat and a turtle. This all seems like mixing culinary metaphors to me, but I understand that the taste is still good either way. I cannot confirm this because it is my 2 year old daughter’s bun. If I even take a taste, I will probably not live to regret it.

Hi Chesu
I think you are on to something there. I wonder if he is getting paid any royalties.
Thanks
Tom
