[Asia Economy Reporter Junhyung Lee] Home appliance company Cuckoo Electronics announced on the 13th that it will launch the 'Cuckoo Bread Maker,' which was introduced in the United States, in the domestic market as well.

Cuckoo Electronics launched the Cuckoo Bread Maker in the U.S. in March last year. The company explained that sales surged through local online and offline distribution channels such as Amazon and Costco, making it a popular appliance following rice cookers and multi-cookers. Following the home cooking and home cafe trends where consumers enjoy making desserts and more by themselves, Cuckoo Electronics decided to release the bread maker domestically.

The Cuckoo Bread Maker is a product that can handle various processes necessary for making bread, such as kneading, fermenting, and baking, with just button operations. By simply adding ingredients, users can make not only bread and cakes but also side menus like jam and yogurt. The dough weight can be selected in three stages: 500g, 700g, and 1000g. The bread color can also be adjusted in three levels according to preference.

Grain bread can be easily made using the 'automatic nut dispenser' function. Without the hassle of kneading, nuts and dried fruits can be added during the bread-making process. With the '15-hour reservation function,' bread can be pre-made to be ready at the scheduled time in the morning. After baking is complete, an automatic warming function operates for one hour to maintain temperature.

The operation buttons on the top of the product are labeled in Korean so that anyone can intuitively recognize them. Stainless steel is applied to resist corrosion and make cleaning convenient.

A Cuckoo Electronics official said, “The Cuckoo Bread Maker is a product recognized for its quality in the U.S. market, where bread is a staple food,” adding, “It is as easy and simple to operate as making rice with an electric rice cooker, allowing anyone to find the joy and charm of home baking.”
