MANILA, Philippines — One of the new trends in baking that was showcased at the recent Bakery Fair 2025 is the use of U.S. Egg Yolk Powder in breads instead of traditional fresh eggs.

According to Chef Sonny Mariano, one of the distinguished chefs who conducted a cooking demonstration during the two-day event, using powdered eggs has several advantages.

One is that it has a long shelf life. It can last for a year if stored properly. It is versatile as well, as it can be used in a variety of ways — and no wastage because there is no spoilage. It retains most of the nutrients found in fresh eggs.

For his demo, Chef Sonny made Pao de Quiejo (Brazilian Cheese Bread), Ube Dacquoise Sandwich, and Deep Dark Cupcakes. He shares the recipe of the Brazilian cheese bread that drew in crowds when samples were given out.
