The Charm and History of Melon Bread

Melon bread, named for its iconic melon-like lattice pattern, is a beloved Japanese sweet that dates back to the 1950s. Evolving under the influence of Western bread-making, it has become a national favorite known for its perfect balance of crispy shell and soft interior.

Characteristics of Melon Bread

The hallmark of melon bread is its cookie dough crust — rich in butter and sugar, offering a lightly sweet, aromatic experience. Inside, the fluffy bread provides a satisfying contrast, especially when freshly baked.

Ways to Enjoy

Melon bread is delightful on its own, but it’s also perfect for sandwiching cream or ice cream, or experimenting with flavors like chocolate and matcha. Lightly warming it brings out even more richness as the cookie layer softens slightly.
