Revolutionary toaster redefines baking experience

BALMUDA The Toaster introduces cutting-edge “steam technology” and precise temperature control, transforming ordinary breads and pastries into fresh and perfect bakes. Known as the “#the toaster that brings dead bread back to life” in South Korea, this innovative appliance has become a staple in kitchens across the globe.

According to award-winning pastry Chef Chong Ko Wai, BALMUDA The Toaster is a game-changer for confectionery items, enabling users to revive stale bread to its original freshness. Chef Chong expressed, “Besides being a beautiful kitchen appliance for my kitchen, BALMUDA The Toaster is very compact and handy to bring anywhere to REBAKE my confectionery items to their original freshness for customers to try.”

Precision pouring for exquisite brews

On the other hand, BALMUDA The Pot boasts a pioneering precision pouring feature with its gooseneck design, water temperature mastery, and extraction techniques for brewing an exquisite and aromatic cup of coffee or tea.

Head Barista Wesley Liew emphasized the significance of factors such as water quality, temperature, and brewing techniques, underscoring that BALMUDA The Pot’s gooseneck spout plays a crucial role in elevating the overall taste and quality of the brew.

“BALMUDA The Pot not only looks elegant, it has the ability to heat the water within few minutes. The most striking feature is its gooseneck spout for precision pouring – which is key to control the flow rate and direction of the water to enhance the overall brew taste and quality. Hence, it’s not surprising that BALMUDA The Pot is a much sought-after item by baristas to compete and excel in international competitions,” explained Wesley Liew.
