KFC Hong Kong recently expanded its bakery options with the addition of Green Tea Biscuits to its menu. With matcha already an extremely popular flavor in Asia, the new biscuits are likely to appeal to those who enjoy the taste of the sweet green tea powder.
The new Green Tea Biscuits are drop biscuits that differ in both size and texture from the biscuits served at KFC restaurants in the US. The new biscuits also feature a sweet matcha flavor that comes from the addition of real green tea powder. To accompany the new biscuits, customers can order dishes such as scrambled eggs and macaroni as part of a current breakfast promotion.
With the demand for matcha-flavored products continuing to grow in Asia and abroad, these new buns demonstrate a unique way that chains can incorporate the flavor into their dishes.
