Sunshine Bakeries: Extra Fine Sprouted Wholemeal Bread & Choc Wholemeal Cream Roll Range

 80% Wholemeal flour, Super soft and tasty.

It's indeed super soft and nice. I personally don't like to eat wholemeal grains bread because I find it very dry after eating and it just doesn't taste good :(.

But Sunshine Bakeries Extra Fine Sprouted Wholemeal bread is different.

I was invited to their launched last week and I gain lots of knowledge and information on sprouted grains and their benefits, especially the talk given by a nutritionist.

Sprouting is what seeds do naturally, when the right moisture and temperature are present. When a grain kernel beings to sprout, the process unlocks many of the grain's nutrients, making them more absorbable by our bodies.

Grains store their energy in the form of starch, a complex carbohydrate that taxes our digestion.

Sprouting increases gluten folate, Vitamins Bs and C, as well as iron, essential amino acids, while reducing gluten load. It increases soluble fiber, which helps maintain healthy blood sugar and cholesterol levels. In turns, this reduces the risks of diabetes and heart diseases.

Sunshine Bakeries Extra Fine Sprouted Wholemeal Bread is endorsed by the Health Promotion Board (HPB) as a Healthier Choice product, and it also has the distinction being the first product in Asia to be endorsed by the US Whole Grains Council... Sunshine Bakeries also unveiled three new additions to the Choc Wholemeal Cream Roll Range.

Here's Cynthia Harriman, Director of Food & Nutrition Strategies, Oldways/The Whole Grains Council addressing the media. It's about 2am over at Boston and was very kind of her to stay up to do a video conference with us.

In short, Sunshine Extra Fine Sprouted Wholemeal Bread is an innovative new product unparalleled in taste, texture and nutritional level. 

✔ High in dietary fibre

✔ Enriched with Vitamins B1, B2, B3, Calcium, Iron.

✔ Trans-Fat Free

✔ No Cholesterol

The 3 new additions to the Choc Wholemeal Cream Roll Range push the envelope of traditional cream rolls. Conveniently packed as a snack, anywhere and anytime, these chocolate cream rolls are just as delicious and made healthier with high whole-grains. It is also fortified with Prebiotics.

These rolls are also enriched with Vitamins B1, B2, B3, which helps to release energy from proteins, fats and carbohydrates.

Anyway, these rolls are Sunshine Cocoa Choc Wholemeal Cream Roll, Sunshine Caramel Choc Wholemeal Cream Roll and Sunshine Coconut Choc Wholemeal Cream Roll.

Meanwhile before the talk, we were taken on a small tour to the shaker room.

I find it really interesting. lol.

During the talk we were served delicious bread! There are so many ways you can eat Sunshine Bakeries Extra Fine Sprouted Wholemeal Bread...

Sunshine Bakeries also surprised us with such a beautiful picnic basket filled with their newly launched bread!

Me and Joey took this opportunity to take a picture at Botanic Garden with the pretty picnic basket and sunflower!

My huge happy face!

Oh yea, showing off my sunflower and picnic basket. lol.

Hello Joey~

Now I am really a health freak! At least more conscious about what I feed my body with.

Singapore Turf Club - Queen Elizabeth II Cup

Few weeks ago, before I fly to Taiwan, Hong Peng invited me to Singapore Turf Club and it was a really good experience. This is my first time there and my first time watching a live horse race! Thank you for extending more invites to me so that I could actually invite Zerika and Alexia to join us! :)

Isn't the two "British Guards" cute hahahaha! They look funny I swear. 

A group photo to start the day at Singapore Turf Club.

Polaroid taking session. I noticed a lot of events are using Polaroid and prints as part of their photo booth activities.  Is it like a trend or something? 

We sat in the Derby Room where we watched horse races and eat at our comfort.

There is a TV/Screen for you to look at as well without squeezing your eyes if the horses are too far off.

Me and Zerika bet $5 each on this horse named "Speedy Cat". We bet $5 placing where by if the horse comes in 1st, 2nd or 3rd we still win money $$$. :D There's two option to the betting, Win / Pla (Placing) , "Win" where by the horse you bet on must win the race, which means it must come in 1st in order for you to win money, but of cause the winning is so much higher. $.$

We learnt a lot about how to look at the different elements and aspects before deciding on the horses to bet on and it's really interesting.

The jockeys all have to weigh themselves before and after the race. Weighing of jockeys with their saddles after the running of a race so as to ensure they have complied with their allocated weight in a race.

Normally the highest winning horse will get the heavier jockey!

On a random note, I find this horse very pretty. LOL. It looks like some royal horse! Ohhhh major love for royal looking horse. <3

There are like freaking rich people there as well, including Datuk. See the amount they bet and their winnings...Maybe in future I can do that as well. 

Really an eye opening experience.

We also get to go to the parade square where the horse will parade around, and to the grand stand where we watched in the heat. hahahaha! But I really enjoyed it at the grand stand, the atmosphere is better actually. 

At the parade square...

It's not only about horse racing, we also did Henna art at the Datuk seats. LOL.

Hmmm..my first time doing Henna art on my hand too.

We went to tour their facilities such as their corporate boxes where it is up for hire for corporate and social events. 

Let's take a selfie~
