Melon Pan with

30% less carbohydrate

There is no separate biscuit dough on top, and it is smooth and plain in shape. Compared to the bulk of ordinary melon bread sold in supermarkets and convenience stores, it seems a little thinner.


When you bite into it, the dough is soft and chewy, with a moist texture. The surface is also sprinkled with a crunchy sugar like granulated sugar, which adds crunch and sweetness. The more you chew, the smoother the margarine flavor spreads. ...... Hey, is this really sugar-free? The best part is that it's a very tasty melon bread. It also gives you a feeling of fullness.


The only thing I would say is that the melon bread is generally soft and moist, so those who like melon bread with a crunchy, crispy texture may find it a bit lacking. In that case, you can bake it in a toaster.


By the way, if you warm it up in the microwave for 10 to 20 seconds, it becomes fluffy , sweet and savory, and is extremely delicious, so please try it! In conclusion, even with 30% less sugar, this melon bread is still fluffy, sweet, and filling. Please enjoy it as a snack on days when you are worried about sugar content.
