Japanese sweet bread :-9

It's burning hot everyday in Japan. I'm limp with fatigue. X(  How is everyone?

Let me introduce about Japanese sweet bread "melon pan". I guess this is kind of Japanese traditional bread. This photo is real melon pan. The figure of melon pan is like a melon.  Cookie dough put on the bread dough, make line and baked.  Actuality some melon pan is not real melon flavor, it's lemon flavor. But a few years ago, melon pan was be popular, came boom. A lot of bakery developed delicious melon pan that use melon juice or melon cream inside of melon pan etc. This melon pan is yellow, but there are green version in some bakery. I like melon pan. :-9

Thank you for reading the explanation of melon pan. I go on to the main theme. hahaha

I made miniature melon pan by clay. :D I guess if I didn't explain about melon pan, other people except people live in Japan may don't understand this is bread.
And it appear pink melon pan in some bakery in April. The flavor is cherry blossom. Cherry blossom is April flower in Japan. :)

What am I doing? hehehe...
