There is a quiet magic in the scent of jasmine: delicate, soothing, and pure. Sunshine Bakeries now brings this familiar scent to life in an all-new form, turning it into something you can truly taste. Launching on 20 November 2025, Sunshine Bakeries introduces the limited edition KOMUGI GOLD Hana Ocha Loaf to celebrate the elegance of Japanese artistry and the beauty of jasmine.
Continuing the spirit of the KOMUGI GOLD series, which debuted in September with the Dark Rye Wholemeal Loaf, this special release reimagines everyday bread into a blooming indulgence. Crafted to complement Malaysia’s growing love for Japanese-inspired flavours, the new Hana Ocha Loaf brings that same mastery into a lighter, more aromatic creation inspired by Japan’s serene tea rituals.
In Japan, tea time is a ritual of appreciation for the aroma, balance, and artistry behind it. Inspired by this, Sunshine Bakeries presents the Hana Ocha Loaf as a modern reflection of Japanese perfection. Each loaf is baked with premium Japanese wheat flour, dark rye, dark malt, black sesame seeds, and oats, infused with jasmine tea that releases a soothing floral scent the moment you open the pack. Its natural sweetness carries a light, honey-like note that elevates each bite beautifully.
Soft and aromatic, this loaf balances the floral grace of jasmine with the mellow depth of grains for a smooth and well-rounded taste. With every bite, a whisper of jasmine blooms across the palate, followed by a light sweetness that lingers like the aftertaste of tea.
Malaysians were first introduced to the KOMUGI GOLD series through the Dark Rye Wholemeal Loaf, which brought wholesome richness and Japanese craftsmanship into local homes. Now, the new Hana Ocha Loaf carries that same artistry into a new chapter. The Japanese wheat flour gives the loaf its signature cloud-soft crumb, with grains woven in delicately to enhance its wholesome depth. The infusion of jasmine tea ties everything together, awakening the senses through a gentle floral note, complemented by the natural sweetness and warmth of grains.
Where the first loaf celebrated hearty richness, the Hana Ocha Loaf celebrates refinement; a softer, more graceful expression of the KOMUGI GOLD philosophy. More than just bread, it reflects how KOMUGI GOLD continues to evolve, bringing the mastery of Japanese baking into Malaysian homes while staying true to its promise of Simply Japanese Perfection.
Though elegantly crafted, the Hana Ocha Loaf remains an everyday indulgence made for breakfast tables, tea spreads, and those unhurried weekend afternoons. Toasted, it fills the air with a soothing floral fragrance, mingling with the warmth of the bread until the kitchen feels like a quiet tea house. Eaten plain, it reveals a smooth sweetness that echoes the lingering taste of jasmine tea.
Perfect for pairing with green tea, black tea, or even coffee, every slice is a reminder that refinement doesn’t have to be distant, it can live in the simple pleasure of bread made with care. Whether enjoyed with butter, a drizzle of honey, or your favourite jam, the Hana Ocha Loaf turns an everyday moment into something fragrant, memorable, and beautifully satisfying. Sunshine Bakeries once again shows that luxury is not only found in extravagance, but in the thoughtful details that make ordinary moments special.
Starting today, the Sunshine KOMUGI GOLD Hana Ocha Loaf is available for a limited time only at major retailers and convenience stores across Klang Valley, Negeri Sembilan, Penang, Johor Bahru, Malacca and Ipoh. Halal-certified and crafted for modern Malaysian palates, it represents a new expression of Japanese baking made for daily life, but only while stocks last!
