From South Korea, where it rapidly gained popularity, and then to the mainland, where it became a huge hit, the “dirty chocolate bun” has recently created a whirlwind in Taiwan’s dessert world. Following this trend, the renowned Taiwanese bakery brand semeur Saint-Na also embraced the “dirty” craze and developed a brand-new product called the “Dirty Haha,” which received an enthusiastic response. Since then, many other bakeries have continued to join in—not only offering various versions of dirty buns, but also getting creative by introducing new flavors such as matcha and strawberry. This adds a colorful twist to the experience, making your mouth as vibrant as the buns themselves, which is quite fun.

A dirty chocolate bun is a bread coated with chocolate sauce and sprinkled with cocoa powder, ensuring that one bite leaves your mouth—and even your clothes—covered in dark, messy cocoa and chocolate stains. Many find the “dirty bun” highly creative, delivering an indulgent burst of chocolate in every bite, which is why it became an instant viral sensation online. Now, beyond the classic chocolate version, bakeries have creatively introduced new flavors like strawberry and matcha, turning each bite into a playful burst of pink and green hues that adds a delightful twist.
In addition to the traditional chocolate flavor, bakeries have also come up with innovative matcha and strawberry-flavored dirty buns.
Taking a bite fills your mouth with a playful splash of pink and green, bringing loads of fun.
Moreover, the popularity of dirty buns has spread across Taiwan, prompting many well-known bakery brands to quickly launch their own versions. For example, Yizhi Xuan launched both matcha and chocolate-flavored dirty buns at the Taipei International Bakery Show last week, winning over netizens and achieving an impressive sales rate of one bun every four seconds on average. 85°C also developed three brand-new dirty bun flavors, available in a limited edition of 5,400 pieces island-wide. The trend of dirty buns selling out instantly continues, showing just how much people love them. If you want to join in on the fun of biting into a messy, flavorful bun, you’d better hurry before they’re all gone.
