His take on the pineapple bun incorporates the coconut-based filling from the cocktail bun, another Hong Kong favorite. He's combining elements from what are arguably Hong Kong's two most beloved buns. It's an ingenious move, frankly. I wish him the best. He deserves much success for all the time and effort that he's put into his business.

he should try some of the other fillings like we do in Hong Kong with our crossovers, the main one being salted egg yolk "lava" (it's amazing in a croissant from Urban Bakery, but also there are already pineapple buns with filling like 流心菠蘿包: Butter-Lava-Pineapple-Bun from Anchor Home Chef website by Anchot butter). also 紅豆菠蘿包 pineapple bun with red bean paste, 叉燒菠蘿包 pineapple bun with bbq pork filling, 有菠蘿餡的菠蘿包 pineapple bun with actual mashed pineapple filling, ...

@@BenjiSun He seems like a guy open to new ideas; so, I wouldn't doubt that he might come up with some new kinds of pineapple buns for his shop. And, the ones you described sound impressive. They seem like logical extensions; but, from what I've seen, they don't appear to be widely available outside of Hong Kong. The pineapple bun cha siu bao hybrid seems to be the most popular.

I love the cocktail (gai mei bao) bun filling, and the addition of the pineapple topping just amps it up. Yummy.

its sounds like a "gai mai bao" and "pineapple bao" hybrid? which is the best of both worlds frankly.

That's what it looks like. A bolo gai mai bao - pineapple cocktail bun. Pretty common in Toronto, but might be unique in the UK. Best of luck to him though - cannot be easy running a Chinese bakery with things they way they are right now.

Here in Toronto, we have several filled Pineapple buns (traditional custard, coconut, red bean, savoury fillings.) First bakery to do this was Lotus Bakery in the early 80s with a pineapple custard, even had chunks of pineapple. Sadly went out of business at the end of the decade. Glad to see a following of pineapple buns in the UK.

This aint no new twist. Many dimsum places have Pineapple buns with custard even tho its rare. these are called 菠萝奶黄包
@ItsAnDeex3

Not only dimsum places. They have it in every bakery. There's only where they cut it and add butter in the center. One with red bean targeted for older Asian's. One you just said custard filling. Even ones with crushed almonds. There are more I haven't tried but then again Europeans are difficult people. So this is new to them but old to us. Europeans are and will always be out dated on everything not European related.

He is catering to popular Asian taste. However Westerners generally prefer salty bread, with seeds, grains etc. Coarser textured bread and not pillowy white bread. They also don't eat much sweeten breads nor breads with filling. It isn't what they are use to nor actively seek out.

Brioche pineapple bun? That's sweet on sweet (on top of more sweet with the custard filling.). 3:59 It's so weird hearing him ooze that droll tired Londoner accent mixed with the typical Cantonese aura. Well in any case, all the luck to him to all in all his endeavors.

The cookie crumb on top has salt in it that helps balance it the sweetness. And coconut custard has a savoury flavour. Yes, sweet but different levels of sweetness not sugary. Asian baked goods are generally less sweet than western.

It’s probably inspired by the trade during the height of Hong Kong. Chinese bakeries also have a bun called mexico bun which is basically a concha but a thinner crust.
