A pineapple bun (Chinese: 菠蘿包; Jyutping: bo1 lo4 baau1) is a kind of sweet bun predominantly popular in Hong Kong[1] and also common in Chinatowns worldwide.[2] Despite the name, it does not traditionally contain pineapple; rather, the name refers to the look of the characteristic topping (which resembles the texture of a pineapple).
