custard bun

Filled sweet roll

A custard bun is a soft bread roll filled with sweet custard cream, popular in Asian bakeries.

The filling is typically yellow, made from eggs, sugar, and milk, enclosed in a light, slightly sweet dough.

Varieties include baked buns with a golden top and steamed versions with fluffy white exteriors: I grabbed a custard bun from the Chinese bakery.
