Japan\u2019s trend for soft, chewy bread just got even more intense.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Family Mart<\/strong> has built up a big fanbase with its popular \u201cFamimaru Bakery<\/strong>\u201d line of baked goods, and this month, there are three new additions<\/strong> bringing textural sensation to the range.<\/p>\n Called \u201cCho Mocchiri Pan<\/strong>\u201d (\u201cSuper Chewy Bread<\/strong>\u201c), this new collection takes Japan\u2019s trend for soft, chewy bread to new heights, with a mouthfeel that\u2019s as springy as mochi (pounded sticky rice cakes).<\/p>\n \u25bc Family Mart\u2019s accompanying commercial highlights the texture of these new delights.<\/p>\n\n \u00a0<\/p>\n According to the chain, the three \u201cevolved\u201d breads, which have never been seen before, provide you with the \u201csuper chewy\u201d texture of your dreams<\/strong>. We were lucky enough to receive all three of them before the official 7 April release date, so we immediately ripped into them and put them to the test, to find out if the texture really is as astounding as they say.<\/p>\n \u25bc Whipped Cream Anpan<\/strong> (158 yen [US$0.99])<\/p>\n As soon as we got our hands around this one, it gave way beautifully beneath the fingers, springing back slowly but steadily, like a mochi rice cake. Biting into it brought the same satisfying sensation to the palate, with the airiness of the whipped cream and jammy texture of the red bean paste adding extra texture and sweetness to the mix. Lighter than most other anpan (red bean paste bread), this is sure to be a hit with customers.<\/p>\n \u25bc\u00a0Caramel Doughnut<\/strong> (178 yen)<\/p>\n This doughnut might look fluffy, but as soon as you pop it in your mouth you\u2019ll be surprised by the satisfyingly chewy texture that gives way between your jaws. The squirt of caramel cream that rings around the inside adds just the right amount of sweetness to every mouthful, complementing the caramel chocolate on the surface, while the chopped almond topping adds contrast in texture to the overwhelmingly soft and springy doughnut.<\/p>\n \u25bc Pizza Bread<\/strong> (198 yen)<\/p>\n Finally, we have a pizza pan (pizza bread) that\u2019s so soft you\u2019ll want to play with it like putty. There\u2019s absolutely no crunch to get in the way of the softness here, with tomato sauce and cheese sauce in the centre, and powdered cheese sprinkled on top of the bread for pizza-like flavour. Though the dough is relatively thin, it\u2019s just as soft and chewy as the two other breads in the range, giving you a greater sense of satisfaction and fullness compared to other goods you\u2019ll find in the bakery aisle.<\/p>\n All three breads really do stand out for their springy, super soft, chewy mouthfeel, and the flavours perfectly complement the texture, delivering sweetness and moreishness in just the right measures. They\u2019ll only be around for a limited time, though, so keep an eye out for them next time you\u2019re there shopping for sandwiches and Famichiki<\/a>.<\/p>\n Photos<\/em> \u00a9SoraNews24\u00a0<\/em> Japan\u2019s trend for soft, chewy bread just got even more intense.
