Red Dragonfruit Soft Bread ??????(????)




Making pink bread with natural colour from fruits is quite challenging because the natural colour from the fruits tends to fade or change after baked. 

I have tried beetroot for red but turned out orange, blue peas flowers for blue but turned out greyish...


Blue Peas Flower bread


 and red dragon fruit for pink loaf but turned out yellow. 



First attempt ~ I was so happy when I see pink at the edges, but....


....too bad, the inside is not pink! ~ First attempt.
This photo was taken on day 4. Still very soft on day 4. 


Although I have failed badly, I never give up because this bread taste really good and very soft. So I have decided to try again, made small buns instead of big loaf, baked with low temperature, shorten baking time. And, yes....this time, I have succeeded! Pink soft buns, nice colour, taste great! 

Here's the video to show how soft is the bread....on day 2 :)
