Where to buy shio pan in Singapore

Carb lovers, this one’s for you. We’ve compiled a list of the best bakeries for fresh shio pan in Singapore! In case you don’t know, shio pan is a type of Japanese bread featuring a lightly salted crust with a buttery, fluffy, and slightly chewy middle. Also known as salt bread, this trendy bun is known for its simple yet delicious flavour. It’s been on the rise lately, with local bakeries coming up with their own renditions of the bake.

1. Butter Town

Google “shio pan Singapore” and you’ll most likely see Butter Town in your top searches. This homegrown bakery, which started as a Holland Village hawker stall in 2023, recently launched a novel shio pan ATM machine in Woodleigh that’s been blowing up all over social media! If you’re visiting their HV stall, their OG Shio Pan goes for just $2.20 a pop. Made with premium Japanese flour and butter, each bun is baked till golden and topped with a few sea salt flakes. We loved how the soft and fluffy bread complemented the slightly crunchy exterior.

Besides Woodleigh and Holland Village, you can also find their shio pan in sandwich form at Hvala Bugis. Try the Chuck Wagyu Beef ($20.90++), featuring the brand’s signature shio pan paired with thin Wagyu beef slices, topped with a house-made sauce.
