Strawberry Custard Bun

I saw soooo pretty bun in Table For 2, with strawberry as a topping. I wanted to make them too. So I made that buns, but sadly I couldn't make it pretty. The bun's texture is almost the same with doughnut, but it remained soft in the next day. I thought I will use this dough for my doughnut dough later. (Biasanya donat saya keras kayak batu hari kedua huhuhuhu)

For your information, this bun is easy but I needed so many effort, I made all from the scratch from the dough, custard, then strawberry sauce. But it was great, because I never saw any bakery sell this hahaha.
