The Polo Bun is a sweet, buttery bread originating from Hong Kong, renowned for its soft interior and crumbly, golden crust. Despite its name, it does not contain pineapple; the topping's textured appearance resembles the fruit's skin. Made from flour, sugar, eggs, butter, and milk, the bun is enriched by a sugary topping of butter, sugar, and flour, creating its iconic sweetness and crunch. While this treat is loved for its indulgent flavor, it is high in refined carbohydrates, sugars, and saturated fats, making moderation important for health-conscious consumers. Polo Buns are often enjoyed with tea or served with a slice of cold butter, known as a "butter polo," offering a creamy contrast to the soft bread. Its origins are deeply rooted in Hong Kong’s bakery culture, making it a nostalgic favorite for locals and visitors alike.
