From their over-sized ears to their short stature, there’s a lot to love about corgis. But there’s a bakery in Japan that’s celebrating arguably the cutest feature of the delightful breed—their fluffy butts! Utiwapayna bakery has been making adorable baked goods for years, including puppy-shaped bread loaves and cat-shaped buns. The bakery recently took the cute factor to the next level with the addition of its corgi-inspired bread bun.

If you’ve ever browsed cute corgi photos online, you’ve probably seen how they often lie down with their hind legs stretched out behind them. Utiwapayna bakery perfectly captures this doggy pancake-like pose with their shapely buns, complete with two splayed-out hind legs and the breed’s signature bobtail. Not only does each baked creation perfectly capture these furry bundles of silliness, but they’re also filled with jam or custard—butt's not to like?

If you’re ever in Japan, make sure to stop at Utiwapayna bakery in Sapporo to pick up your own corgi bread bun.
