Butterkuchen by Bakers & Baristas

This was Butterkuchen by Bakers & Baristas in Washington, DC.

I have been interested in this relatively new bakery in downtown DC, especially their popular sweet buns called Butterkuchen. Luckily I got a chance to visit the place after our dim sum brunch at The Source nearby. It was around 4pm. There was not many things left, but we secured two of Butterkuchen to go! I gently reheated them for breakfast of the next day. It was sweet brioche buns with a hint of orange (I think). The bottom of the bun had a layer of custard cream made with real vanilla beans. It was nothing complicated or sophisticated, but simple and tasty as it looked. I like this kind of honest sweet bread. If I happen to be around the place, I would drop by and buy a couple of them. However, I won't go there just for the buns because I am sure I could make something like this by myself. Thank you Bakers & Baristas for an idea of my new sweet bun project!
