Healthy Bites, XuanMa Style

At XuanMa, we believe that egg yolk pastries are more than just a delicious snack—they’re a celebration of flavor and health. Our range of pastries offers something for everyone, from the creamy richness of red bean to the earthy sweetness of purple sweet potato, the refreshing boost of matcha, and the savory delight of cheese. Each filling not only enhances the taste but also provides fantastic health benefits. Let’s dive into the unique benefits of these fillings and why they make XuanMa’s pastries a healthier option for all.

Why Red Bean Should Always Be Ground With the Skin On

When it comes to red bean paste, it’s not about making it as smooth as possible. In fact, overly refined paste can stick to your mouth and affect the overall experience. At XuanMa, we carefully balance the texture and sweetness by choosing red bean paste with just the right level of granularity and sweetness—soft, yet not dry, and sweet, yet not overwhelming. Plus, keeping the red bean skin intact helps retain valuable dietary fiber and vitamins, ensuring you get the full nutritional benefits.

The Nutritional Power of Purple Sweet Potato

Purple sweet potatoes aren’t just visually stunning with their vibrant color—they’re packed with powerful nutrients that provide multiple health benefits. Rich in antioxidants, particularly anthocyanins, purple sweet potatoes are great for combating oxidative stress and promoting overall health.

• High in Antioxidants: Anthocyanins give purple sweet potatoes their deep purple color and have anti-inflammatory properties, helping to reduce the risk of chronic diseases.
• Promotes Eye Health: They are a great source of vitamin A, which supports healthy vision.
• Boosts Immunity: With high levels of vitamin C, purple sweet potatoes help strengthen your immune system, especially during the colder months.

Matcha vs. Green Tea Powder: What’s the Difference?

Tea leaves are finely ground into powder, known as green tea powder, specifically made for beverages. On the other hand, matcha powder, which is used in baking, requires a special process. During its growth, the tea leaves are covered with shade nets to reduce bitterness. Moreover, in the matcha-making process, low-temperature roasting is used to preserve more of its nutrients, like tea polyphenols and vitamin C, making it not only delicious but also a healthy choice.

Why Cheese Is a Healthy Addition to Your Diet

Cheese may not always be the first food that comes to mind when thinking about health, but it is packed with nutrients that offer several health benefits. From boosting bone health to supporting muscle function, cheese is a versatile and nutritious food that pairs perfectly with our pastries.

• Rich in Calcium: Cheese is a great source of calcium, which supports bone health and reduces the risk of osteoporosis.
• Boosts Muscle Function: Packed with protein, cheese helps build and repair tissues, making it ideal for muscle recovery.
• Supports Gut Health: Fermented cheeses like cheddarand goudacontain probiotics, which help support a healthy gut microbiome.
