Taiwanese bakery Hazukido, which found fame for its Japanese-style croissants will finally debut in Singapore. The famous bakery already has a global presence in Hong Kong, Malaysia, Macau, and Canada. Here’s what you need to know about this croissant-only Hazukido bakery before it lands in Singapore.
The demand for croissants will never cease. The traditional French pastry is the perfect choice for breakfast or as a to-go snack. Adored for its flaky and buttery exterior that wraps the puffy dough, there’s no lack of quality croissant bakeries in Singapore to get your hands on this classic.
From notable artisanal bakeries like Mother Dough Bakery and Brotherbird Bakehouse to famed names Tiong Bahru Bakery and Cédric Grolet Singapore, there’s bound to be a version that’ll suit your fancy. Come August 2024, a new entrant will join the fray – Hazukido.
What you should know about Hazukido Singapore and its croissant flavours
Although founded in Taiwan, it’s easy to mistake Hazukido for a Japanese brand. It does, however, adopt the Shokunin spirit of Japan by selecting the highest quality ingredients like Japanese Centenary flour and European premium Elle & Vire butter to create its croissants.
In Japan, the Shokunin spirit means to achieve the perfect execution of a skill. In the case of Hazukido, the brand aims to achieve excellence by creating buttery croissants.
Singaporeans who frequent Malaysia will already be familiar with the brand, as it has established a presence there since 2019. It is also Halal-certified in both Taiwan and Malaysia. Thus, it is highly likely that Hazukido will attempt to attain a Halal certification here.
Hazukido will open at Takashimaya, Ngee Ann City, Singapore. Nothing has been revealed regarding the exact menu yet. However, referring to its official website and social media channels, customers can expect a myriad of flavours, from sweet varieties like the Golden Cheese and Premium Durian Custard, to savoury ones like the Queen Crab with Truffle Cream Sauce.
