""Although I come from a family of hot cross bun lovers, enjoying them hot, cold and as a vehicle for cheddar cheese, I have never ventured into the world of novelty flavours.""
""Clearly, people like them: in its annual supermarket taste test, the Australian consumer advocacy group Choice awarded one of its highest ever scores to a chocolate bun.""
Hot cross buns, traditionally eaten on Good Friday, are now found in stores as early as January. Supermarkets offer a wide variety, including non-traditional flavors like red velvet and chocolate. Purists may disapprove, but some food reviewers suggest viewing these variations as separate products. A taste test of 25 non-traditional buns alongside a traditional one revealed a preference for chocolate buns, which often lack dried fruit. This shift indicates a growing consumer interest in diverse flavors beyond the classic hot cross bun.
