Purple Sweet Potato Spiral Buns

Spiral Buns With Purple Sweet Potato Fillings.



I like to see the combination of purple and white,so I sprinkle more white on it,






It's all in a day's work,and when my hubby came home,saw this on the table and said "wow",so beautiful buns.Still I think I'm not so perfect and not so professional yet.Still need improvement.
I went shopping and when I enter the supermarket to buy some veggies home,I saw this purple sweet potatoes.I choose some and bought it home.Almost everyday I make something for my daughter to bring to school.
I headed home and began searching for recipes.I wanted to make sweet potato buns.
