About Swazi buns

Swazi buns are rounded, yeast-raised breads documented in Eswatini’s national collection of commonly consumed foods. This household-survey rendition features cake flour, white sugar, water, yeast and salt.

The buns have a lightly sweet cereal flavour and a soft, risen crumb. Their golden surface carries a sugar-solution glaze, giving the simple bread a sweet finish.

The individual buns have rounded tops and touching sides. Their close-set arrangement forms a cluster with a sweet glazed surface.
