I would say this bread live up to its name! It was truly ultra soft. Goodness, I can't believe that it has such fluffy texture that I nearly cried out. Okay, exaggerating a bit. LOL!
Anyway, this recipe as usual was adopted from my favourite bread recipe book "孟老師的100道麵包". I modified a few parts. Replacing water with milk and sprinkling sugar on top. The sugar really add a tint of little surprise when you bite down the 1st mouth. It's just so heaven! This's definitely a keeper!

Wow! I've never seen so soft bread :) A question: when do you add the butter to the bread dough?
Hi Mrs Kwok,
chanced upon your site and found your recipes very yummy indeed.
Tried this soft custard loaf yesterday and the batter turned out very very wet and sticky. I did what I know best, adding more flour and knead by hand til they all come together.
Is your dough as sticky?
by the way, I read your older posts and read that you wanted a 'diaper bag'. I was browsing for myself such a bag as well, and found this same-looking bag in another malaysian website. I'm sure it's an imitation but the price is so reasonable. And they do deliver to singapore as well.
If you haven't already gotten the bag, you can email me and I'll give u the website address. (Don't want to publish here coz later ppl tot I'm the owner and advertising for them). LOL... believe me, I'm just a regular online shopper.
