Kumori + Zomato: Japan Baked Daily Delivered Fresh...

All it takes is one click, and your order of Kumori's fresh-baked signature treats are on its way... 

Kumori Japanese Bakery has officially tapped Zomato Philippines as its Official Online Ordering and Delivery Partner, a collaboration that provides loyal customers ease of accessibility to a variety of fresh baked products from Kumori. The collaboration significantly expands Kumori's reach, and elevates Zomato as a relevant enabler where you not only search restaurants, but order online to complete the experience. And there's no better way to kick-off the unique service than with one of the metro's best international bakery chains and its signature Japanese-style products...

Kumori, one of Japan's biggest bakery chains known for its light and delicate cheesecake and wide range of freshly-baked products, continues to expand its local operations with the introduction of new products and the opening of a fourth location at UP Town Center (for more on Kumori Japanese Bakery, see my earlier post on Kumori's Signature Baked Products and Previous Seasonal Offerings). And if you're craving for that unique "bite into clouds" texture of Kumori's products, you don't even have to go far, all it takes is a mere click...

A selection of both new bread variants and popular bestsellers from Kumori Japanese Bakery were packed in a box, delivered and ready to enjoy. The mix of both new products and bestsellers highlighted the wide variety of fresh-baked treats and flavors from Kumori, each one with the signature "bite into clouds" texture that made it famous... 

Each of the freshly-baked products are individually wrapped, keeping the flavors intact. And then, it's time to brew a cup of coffee and unwrap the goodies...

Kumori's new rustic bread variants include the Cranberry Yuzu (P 78), a hearty, homestyle and comforting white bread with Kumori's signature fluffy interior contrasting with a crisp outer layer infused with citrusy yuzu and tart cranberries. Slicing the loaf releases a fragrant and citrusy aroma, and one bite delivers the buttery goodness of the soft bread punctuated by the subtle tart hints of yuzu and cranberries. It's great as is, and pairs well with a robust brew of your favorite coffee.

The classic Ciabatta (P 48), a slightly flattened white bread that's soft and fluffy inside with a light and crisp outer layer, is another new variant with a more traditional spin. It's soft yet chewy, with a light yet firm texture ideal for pairing with your favorite topping. A sharp tapenade or simply butter would be perfect with Kumori's new Ciabatta. Like all premium Japanese products, the rustic richness of the new Ciabatta is highlighted by its subtleties, made with the best ingredients for distinct flavor and texture.

My box of signature baked products also included Kumori's bestsellers, a trio of sweet and savory treats...

...like the Crabstick Bun (P 58), a soft and chewy bun topped with crabstick drizzled with creamy Japanese mayo, a fusion of Japanese-inspired notes and ingredients for a refreshing flavor experience. The distinct flavor of the crabstick is capped by the rich Japanese mayo for a unique blend, with the soft and subtle sweetness of the bun completing the flavors.

The Apple Cheese Danish (P 59), a soft and flaky Danish pastry filled with velvety smooth cream cheese and topped with tart and sweet caramelized apples, has always been a personal favorite, with just the right balance of sweet and tart layers in every bite. The flaky pastry, with its buttery notes, is the perfect base for the cream cheese and caramelized apples, it's a classic Danish with Kumori's signature touch.

The Custard Butter Bun (P 45) rounds out Kumori's popular bestsellers, a pillow-soft bun filled with rich and creamy egg custard and milky buttercream. The pillow-soft texture combines with the creamy filling's rich notes for that signature "bite into clouds" feel. Light yet chewy and sweet, it's the perfect bun for that sugar craving.
