I've always had a deep fondness for British culture, especially when it comes to their desserts. The rich history of the Hot Cross Bun is one that I can really appreciate and feel connected to.

No matter which way you look at it, the Hot Cross Bun is a classic sweet treat that I consider myself blessed to be affiliated with due to my partial British heritage. Whether you’ve grown up on them or are just now learning about them, these deserve a place in our lives as they celebrate beauty and tradition locked within their sugary deliciousness. With all that being said, till next time, tuck in!
