Hey people~ been travelling to the South of Malaysia from KL,with 3 of my friends, we travelled a 4 hours car trip to one of the states of Johor, Segamat.
First stop of course, Seremban Siew Bao... since it's on the way, we bought siew bao and a few egg tarts as our tea break before continuing our journey.
After 2h30min from Seremban, we reached our destination~ Chuan Bee Bakery and Confectionery... we got the chance to help out with one of my friend's uncle to create a bread catalogue for their bakery shop to be provided to potential customers.... our task for the day would be taking photographs of different breads that Chuan Bee bakery provide to the customers.....

At first, we can't get the flow of the whole situation as we had difficulty in setting up everything despite lacking of proper lighting and a studio, but everything is well done at the end of the day with the help of each other....
setting up for shooting....
professional on the move....
We had fun shooting all the breads and eating it =D... after finishing our task, the tauke gave us all the bread which we took for shooting purposes as much as it can feed my 3 meals in a week.... lol~ so many breaddds!!!
we can't resist to take a bite of their breads and their cakes while we are shooting....
After we finished our work, 4 of us were being treated for a dinner with the tauke's family and his son are kind enough to show us around the town by bringing us to their shopping complexes and went to eat the famous chinese roti canai for breakfast which is a must try when u come to segamat.
And I got to learn a lot from their bakery shop on how they operate and they wake up every morning as early as 3am to start baking their bread to be sell on that day....
Their breads were made fresh everyday to maintain the quality of their breads....
and if some of the breads that were unable to sell within 3 days, they will throw it away and it cannot be used for sale purposes.... i think it's a great ethic and is a sign of sincerity in providing their breads to their customers....
Cute croissant... =)
In addition, they also supplied frozen dough to other bread suppliers such as hotels and other bakery shops....
the choices varies from plain bread loaf to wholemeal, black sesame, croissant, and buttered buns...
I had a fun bread trip to the south and it's my first time to had experience such great hospitality from them from the day we reach until the day we leave....
It's a great experience to learn a few more knowledge about bread making and taste some awesome bread...
I would have to say that this journey to Segamat was short but sweet... ;)
Finally I would like to thank you again for all the things that I had been recieving and
it's a pleasure to lend our helping hand to some very awesome people....
