📜 History
Sweet buns have origins in many culinary traditions:
European brioche & milk bread: enriched breads made with butter and eggs.
Japanese flower bread (hanabira pan): often shaped in petals with sweet bean paste or cream.
Middle Eastern & Mediterranean breads: enriched doughs often flavored with honey or fruits.
This recipe takes inspiration from Japanese and European methods, combining fluffy milk bread with artistic shaping.
