This corn-shaped bun is incredibly realistic and cleverly designed; it looks so appetizing! It's especially great for those who love chewy mochi, as it contains corn kernels. In the morning, take it out and air fry it at 390F for 20 minutes, flipping it halfway through (though it's okay if you don't flip it). Pairing it with milk or coffee perfectly balances the sweetness, making you feel energized and ready for work!
