According to Wikipedia, brioche "is a bread of French origin and whose high egg and butter content gives it a rich and tender crumb. It has a dark, golden, and flaky crust, frequently accentuated by an egg wash applied after proofing."

According to Amy Treasure, "Brioche tastes richer than standard bread. It has a sweet almost cake-like taste. It's buttery and sweet and very delicious!"
