2026-07-26 | Bake the Book Club: Mooncakes and Milk Bread

Milk bread. Mooncakes. Pineapple buns. Bake one recipe from Mooncakes and Milk Bread and taste your way through a Chinese bakery.

Chinese bakeries are beloved for their irresistible mix of sweet and savory treats—pillowy milk bread, buttery pineapple buns, delicate mooncakes, steamed buns, Swiss rolls, cookies, dumplings, and more.

This month, Bake the Book Club travels to that world through Mooncakes and Milk Bread by Kristina Cho.

Choose one recipe from the book, prepare it at home, and bring it to Coastal Table and Tales to share with fellow bakers. Together we'll sample each other's creations, discuss techniques, swap tips, and learn more about the traditions behind these iconic bakes.

Whether you're an experienced baker or simply looking to try something new, this gathering is designed to inspire.

Some recipes are wonderfully approachable. Others will stretch your skills a bit. That's part of the fun.

If you've been looking for an excuse to try milk bread, mooncakes, steamed buns, or other Chinese bakery favorites, this is it.

Bonus: Savannah's Enson Market makes sourcing many of the specialty ingredients easier than you might expect, giving you access to ingredients that aren't always available at a traditional grocery store.

How It Works

• Prepare it before the event.
