- 50 g Bread flour/Baker's flour
- 40 ml boiling water above 90 degrees celsius
- 150 ml milk (lukewarm)
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 3 g dry instant yeast
- 200 g Bread/Baker's flour

Instructions
- 1
Make Yudane the night before. Place the bread flour in a bowl and add boiling water and mix well. Put cling wrap and refrigerate overnight. *1
- 2
Add all bread ingredients to the bread machine.
- 3
Knead them for 20 minutes.
- 4
While the bread is being kneaded, make the purple sweet potato and kabocha pumpkin paste.
- 5
Place each powder into two separate small bowls and add water and stir. Set aside.
- 6
When the surface of the dough becomes shiny, take the dough out of the machine and divide the dough into three (to make white, purple, and orange dough).
- 7
Knead the purple sweet potato paste into one dough and the kabocha pumpkin paste into another.
- 8
Spray some oil in three bowls and put each dough in the centre.
- 9
Cover each bowl with cling wrap and leave them somewhere warm (or leave them in an oven for 1 hour at 30 c).
- 10
Once the dough has been left for an hour (or doubled in size) take each out of the bowl and place onto a floured bench or chopping bread. Preheat the oven to 180 c.
- 11
Punch each ball of dough down and divide them into 6 even-sized pieces. Shape each piece into a nice round shape and place it in a baking tin lined up next to each other.
- 12
Cover the baking tin with cling wrap and leave it in warm place till the size of the dough doubles.
- 13
Bake it for about 20 minutes. Occasionally check the bread to see if it has become browned (you need to cover with aluminium foil to prevent further browning or burning).
- 14
Take the bread out of the oven once it has cooked, allow it to cool down a little, then have fun decorating it with a deco-pen filled with melted chocolate.
- 15
Serve the bread on a plate for everyone to pull apart.
