While Donq’s oozy uji matcha lava buns and Sweets Craftsman’s Mount Fuji cakes have recently gone viral, there’s another underrated Japanese boulangerie in Singapore you should check out: Asanoya Bakery. First opened in 1933 in Karuizawa, a town in Nagano, Japan, Asanoya started off serving foreign diplomats and the noble class. Today, the premium bakery has multiple outlets across Japan, and 3 branches in Singapore.

They sell all sorts of breads and pastries including Hokkaido Cheese Tarts ($3), Croque Monsieur ($4.50), and classic An Pan ($2.60), and we can’t help but go gaga over their adorable animal-themed pans (breads)! The newest addition to the animal series is the savoury Asanoya Bunny ($3.20), which comes with a chicken cheese sausage.

Matcha monsters should head straight for the Turtle Matcha Pan ($3), a milk bun with green tea biscuit crust that conveniently serves as the turtle’s shell. Expect this to have a crispy bite, much like a bo lo bun!
Satiate your sweet tooth with the Lion Apple Pan ($3.50), filled with custard and apples from Japan. There’s also the Asanoya Panda ($3.50), a fluffy bun with a chocolate ganache centre.
