Re: hot cross buns
Love them but then I always loved toasted teacakes when I was a kid.
Hadn't eaten them for a few years but managed to find some gluten- and yeast-free ones in our local wholefood store so got some, and they actually taste ok.

Re: hot cross buns
Freshly cooked, served warm with lashings of real butter 
Nothing worse than finding a burnt bit of fruit though

Re: hot cross buns

The Brumby's ones that we had earlier in the week were much nicer but the OH finished them

Re: hot cross buns
I really don't want to sound like a whinging Pom but am I the only person that finds Bakers Delight expensive? $1.50 per hot cross bun??

Re: hot cross buns
Really, is that how much they cost?!?
I do normal groceries and the OH gets all the treats on his way home from work. He stopped at the posh bakers the other day and bought some from there, I wonder how much they were, because he said "They were bit more than Bakers Delight but they looked so good".
Bankrupted by hot cross buns

Re: hot cross buns
$6.50 for six from Baker's Delight BUT if you try one you'll find them about three times as filling as your average UK hot cross bun and you do only eat one, so not as bad as it first seems.

Re: hot cross buns
Hmm I have polished off 4 of them today but then again I am known for my piggery...clearly I'm posting on the wrong thread I should be on the 'Australians Why So Fat' one instead!
