It took a while for “Dirty Bread” 脏脏包 to reach Singapore. Another food trend I do not quite understand as well.
The latest food hype is all about buns dusted with chocolate, that would create powdery and creamy stains all over your mouth (and face) when you eat them ferociously.
Thus the name ”Zang zang bao” 脏脏包 which literally means dirty-dirty breads.
Perfect moment to Instagram, boomerang or weibo those videos.
The trick is how to have your face stained with chocolate and still look good / glamorous / instagrammable.
This, I can’t do in a million years (as my face already looks like a piece of bread).
Em… this is a third of my face. #BadAttempt
The trend is said to have started from Beijing bakery Bad Farmers & Our Bakery, prompting many netizens to pose their versions of stained faces on social media platforms.
Keong Saik Bakery
The Matcha Dirty Bread ($4.50) contains drizzles of matcha sauce and Uji Matcha powder sprinkled on top. Also available is a chocolate version.
They also have a “Dirty Bread Challenge” to win vouchers. The owner (I guess?) approached me to do it while I was desperately trying to do a selfie. I went “No!” Opps. Keong Saik Bakery (Keong Saik Road)
Duke Bakery
Duke Bakery serves up two style of Dirty Breads – a Messy Chocolate and Messy Matcha (each $4.50).
Boufe Boutique Café
Located at a rather ulu Phoenix Park Tanglin, Boufe has introduced 5 different flavours of Dirty Breads – Chocolate, Matcha, Strawberry, Sweet Potato and Salted Egg.
Salted Egg? Win. Each cost $5.
Original Cake
Since the trend of castella cake is coming down… their version is called the “Direty Bom”.
The surprise is the custard cream within, finished with sprinkles of cocoa powder at the top.
BreadTalk
Looking at BreadTalk’s latest Facebook post, looks like they have jumped on the bandwagon, and pretty fast as well.
This should be the talk of the (food) town in the next couple of weeks.
All right, looks like many bakeries in Singapore will follow suit. So let it begin again…
