There are two kinds of small buns in the same package. The "siomai man" is a Chinese bun dough wrapped with siomai bean paste, which is popular among children and adults alike for its cute appearance. It can be eaten as is, without heating, and can be easily enjoyed as a snack or a dish for the dinner table.

Sakuraman is also a unique springtime treat, with its sweet red bean paste mixed with salted cherry blossom leaves, wrapped in a lovely cherry-colored dough and branded with cherry blossom petals on the top.

Frozen products need to be warmed up. Place them in a steamer with steam and heat for about 10 minutes, or place them in a microwave oven on a heatproof plate, sprinkle with water, cover with plastic wrap, and heat. In the case of 500W household power, siomai buns should be heated at 500W for 1 minute and 20 seconds, and sakura buns for about 1 minute.
