Thank you so much for my Sakura rice cooker and the replacement steam basket. I’ve made fantastic long grain rice a few times, and also tried the vegan brownie recipe on the greedy panda blog, with great success. My friends couldn’t believe that it was a) vegan, and b) made in a rice cooker! Kudos to you guys as YumAsia for developing this rice cooker.

I really like this rice cooker. The short grain rice setting for sushi is very good – the texture of the rice is al dente and I can now cook my sushi whenever I want. The keep warm is very long, I haven’t used it for the full 24 hours, but have used it for 15 hours and the rice was just as nice as when first cooked. The brown rice setting is very useful because it usually takes so long in a pan.

Fantastic rice cooker, cooks rice perfect. I like the porridge for congee, I use the recipe in the manual and it was very nice. I am still to try the cake and yoghurt, but I will this weekend. I hope they are very nice too 🙂

Very good fluffy rice, very good steaming and cake. I like the ceramic bowl and it’s well built and designed.

Excellent rice cooker. Cooks white and brown rice very, very and the short grain rice is tasty too (need to adjust the water a bit). The rice tastes amazing and the ceramic bowl is great. We have tried a few recipes from the Yum Asia blog and have been really happy with how they turned out. The keep warm is brilliant, so when the kids are coming in at different times it’s so much easier to feed them. Thanks for a brill product

Well I’ve had my cooker for about 6 to 8 weeks now, and it is the bestest thing that I’ve purchased in a long time. I thought my Mum cooked the best rice for a long time, then sadly I’ve had to it for the last 18 year’s. But this machine is “PURE DEAD BRILLIANT, FAN BLOODY TASTIC I would recommend buy it now Contact me if you wish. Cheers John 20 out 10

Use this at least twice a day for porridge (when it’s not so hot weather!) and for rice. I love setting the timer and not having to mess when I get in from work. Great stuff 🙂

Great rice cooker, love the ceramic bowl and it cooks rice really well. I’d never tasted rice this good and I’m eating so much better/healthy since buying this 4 months ago.

Don’t usually have much time to review stuff, but this is such a good product I felt YumAsia deserved it. Sakura is a must have kitchen appliance. It does hands free perfect sushi rice, perfect basmati rice (we do a biryani in it), perfect quinoa, perfect bulgur wheat, then holds it until you are ready to eat it. Can’t believe I’ve cooked for as long as I have and never had the joy of a really good rice cooker. All executed bob on by Yum Asia both from the slick website through to getting the delivery. I genuinely recommend.

Sakura Ceramic Bowl Rice Cooker

We are happy to announce Phase II of our Sakura expansion into the UK and Europe. The success of Sakura has beaten our expectations and is now officially our best selling rice cooker that Yum Asia has ever sold. Our sales rate is beyond our projections so we are therefore increasing our factory production schedule of this model for the 2nd and 3rd quarters of 2017 to ensure un-interrupted supply availability throughout the year.

Even more great news is that we are extending our special launch offer price of just £109 into April so get it while you can!

Sales of our Sakura Rice Cooker are on the up and to make it that little bit sweeter we have created a combo deal with another one of our creations the ‘Tafu’ thermal mug.

Watch our combo deal promo video for more information:

The Sakura Rice Cooker and Tafu Thermal Mug are both available in a Combo deal as part of our promotional launch of these products. You can see our sales page here for further details at www.yumasia.co.uk/sakura-combo. Available at a special price of only £119 for a limited time only.

Sakura and accessories

The response to the launch of Yum Asia’s first premium rice cooker has been much much better than expected. In particular, the ceramic cooking bowl, modern MoTouch LED control panel and add on cooking features that are actually useful to people seem to be the main reasons why Sakura is proving to be so popular.  Ceramic coatings are becoming increasingly attractive in kitchen appliances because some people consider this material to be safer for cooking than Teflon and other non-stick coatings. Sakura’s 5 layer cooking bowl is made with this in mind and is durable enough to handle even the most demanding cooking.

Yum Asia will now push into 2017 and expand Sakura rice cookers into the UK and European markets. However, we will make sure that we retain our 100% track record of providing superior customer service and that special ‘personal touch’ to ‘all’ of our customers backed up with a robust comprehensive 12 month warranty service.

Our sales forecast has now been revised upward due to more demand than anticipated. We appreciate your support and hope that it continues into 2017 and beyond!
