The Pork Bao is, All sugar, no meat, really not good.

I’m sorry but I don’t know how you can justify putting that much sickly sweet sugar into a meat product. They taste sweeter than a bag of Skittles. The texture of the bao/bread part is actually near perfect, but you ruin it by making it horribly sugary. The bun’s filling seems to be more sugar than meat. There are just a few tiny little cubes of SWEET meat covered in more sugary, sweet, jam-stuff in the centre. Really unpleasant.
The remaining 4 were thrown in the bin in the end, and I absolutely hate having to throw away food, especially when it’s so overpriced in the first place.

Impressed with the quality

Impressed with the quality. Having tried some not so good frozen food box products, I was pleasantly surprised by the taste and quality of the bao. Will order again.

Fantastic bao buns

Fantastic bao buns, delicious and easy to cook. Delivery was quick, and makes for a no fuss dinner. Tried the pork and the beef, and both lovely. Would use again.

This was my first experience of Bao…

This was my first experience of Bao buns. As such the ordering and delivery was easy and excellent. The buns were very tasty and the steaming instructions were absolutely spot on. My only disappointment was how thick the buns were - this did not detract from the flavours inside but made them difficult to eat.

Hi RH, glad you enjoyed the flavours! Traditionally the bao are supposed to be nice and fluffy and sounds like you nailed it with the steaming. We'd love to know a bit more about which products ref the thickness of the buns, would you be so kind as to drop us a quick line at hello@bun-dles.com as we'd love to find out more?

Kind regards

Amazing buns

I’ve ordered from Bun-dles a few times now, and they never seem to disappoint. They come frozen and go straight into the freezer. I have them saved for a weekend treat or a quick family meal on a weeknight when cooking is a chore. We had recently the black pepper pork and beef rendang and both were delicious, and the salt custard lava goes down well with the kids.

The BEST bao bun at home experience

The BEST bao bun at home experience, and I’ve tried lots over the years!

Perfect for special, convenient Friday night entertaining. We tried all flavours and they all looked and tasted great! Kids already asking for more.

Service and delivery faultless.

Delicious pork bao but disapppointing desserts

We really enjoyed the Black Pepper Pork Bao (delicious!) but the Salted Custard Lava Bao and Matcha White Chocolate Lava Bao were a bit too sweet and the fillings were not gooey lava they were just liquid which ran out onto the plate immediately so we were disappointed as they sounded so nice.

Hi Kate, thank you for your feedback - delighted to hear you enjoyed the Black Pepper Pork, that's one of my favourites too! As a small business it's really encouraging to hear the positive feedback, so thank you for that.

On the desserts, I'm so sorry to hear they were a bit too sweet for you. And the runny-ness is definitely something we can look into.. would you be so kind as to drop us an email on hello@bun-dles.com so we can find out more? Thank you.

Kind regards

Disappointed with the product, service was adequate.

The buns were delivered when they were supposed to and well packed, but unfortunately the products just aren't that good.
I ordered the variety bundle and none of the flavours were very good - they're all missing a bit of oomph. Can't have a Thai green curry or Rendang with no spice!
The desert ones were the most disappointing of the lot - the fillings were a watery mess after steaming them in a bamboo steamer as directed.
I had high hopes as I love traditional Chinese bao but definitely won't be buying again.

Hi S, I'm so sorry to hear that. We're working really hard to balance the spices to appeal to what people prefer and I'm sorry that on this occasion they were too mild for you. I've fed this back into our kitchen, where our dim sum chefs and team pride themselves on the authenticity of the flavours so we'll certainly be looking into this.

If you would be so kind as to drop us an email at hello@bun-dles.com we'd love to find out more about your experience.

The baos are 90% dough and little filling. Also often the dough in the centre is wet from the filling so tastes raw.
Love the company but was disappointed with the taste

Excellent product, a real treat

Excellent comms, pre-delivery. Very well packaged, so easy to heat up and even easier to eat and enjoy! Delicious buns, beautiful to the eye and easy on the tummy. It would be great if there were seafood and more veggie options.

Unfortunately the order was never delivered, not bun-dles fault but obviously until we rearrange I can’t really comment .

Hi there, thank you for the feedback - and thank you for letting us know so promptly whilst the order was inflight that it looked like there was going to be a delay on it back on the 27th Jan.. we did our absolute best to liaise with everyone involved and try to resolve it in time but sadly no luck on this occasion. And we are truly sorry, its genuinely galling for all of us when good food goes to waste like this! Let alone the inconvenience it has caused you of course.

We do hope you rearrange with us directly in due course, and look forward to hearing what you think of our buns when you get to try them!

Kind regards
