    I made this in bun form to go with the Suya Burger recipe as suggested. I found that it didn't rise all that much during proving time, but it did come out nicely in the end. I couldn't get pineapple essence so left that out. It was a nice pillowy bread but I didn't find it all that distinctive - maybe because of the lack of pineapple, I'm not sure.

    Sweet pillowy and faintly exotic. This is a lovely bread, the nutmeg and coconut enriched dough is soft and fragrant. The whole family loved this
