I <3 hot cross buns. Their arrival in stores means the closer my most favourite eating holiday will be! A 6 pack of shiny hot cross buns was bought last week to take with me to the land of cheap shopping aka Malaysia to tide me over until i return haha but dudes this Saturday March 20 is ‘Bundraiser Day’, and all 625 Bakers Delight bakeries nationwide will be donating $1 from every six-pack of Hot Cross Buns sold, to raise over $145,000 for the purchase of essential medical equipment to help make a difference for sick children this Easter.

Chocolatesuze is giving away 5 x $10 vouchers to our awesome readers to grab some freshly baked Easter hot cross buns goodness from Baker’s Delight. All you have to do is leave a comment on how you like your hot cross buns- buttered? With sultanas? Toasted? The competition is only open to Australian residents. You can enter once each day. Winners will be selected using Random.org Competition closes Monday 29th March at 9am, winners will be notified by email.

Hot cross buns are one of the reasons why I love Easter (only second to the Easter chocolates) <3

I like my hot cross buns toasted until crisp on the outside but warm and fluffy on the inside, eaten with a slab of butter. Simplicity.

Lighty toasted & buttered…that’s the only way to eat them. Anything else is hot cross bun sacrilidge!
— Andrew Mar 19, 01:58 PM #
Mmmmmm Hot Cross Buns should only be eaten from the oven (wrapped in foil) with ahem LOTS of butter.
— Jackie Mar 19, 02:42 PM #
Best eaten with an obscene amount of butter and a fresh steaming cup of coffee. yum!

Hi, I am a new reader to your blog, love it especially bits abt how to cook something! I LOVE hotcross buns, I like those with fruit , must be toasted n buttered! My kids like choc chils, the more chips the better!
— Rachel Mar 19, 03:11 PM #
My fave way to eat hot cross buns is having them cooked under the grill and with lashings of butter.

My kids prefer the choc chip ones and I’m going to jump ship from the fruit ones to the chocolate ones soon at this rate :D
— Tamz Mar 19, 03:35 PM #
Warm from the oven with lashings of either danish or tasmanian butter. Original are the best, no chocolate for me (sorry suze :p) Any leftovers make an awesome bread and butter pudding.
— Sara Mar 19, 03:43 PM #
I like my hot cross buns toasted on the fires of perdition and eaten upon a heaped pile of my still-complaining enemies.
— The Ninja Mar 19, 03:44 PM #
I like my hot cross buns in my belly.
— Rose Mar 19, 03:44 PM #
Toasted, allowed to cool slightly and then slathered with butter. That way you can eat the butter instead of drinking it. lol. A cup of tea on the side is essential too :)

Thanks so much for running this giveaway!
— Jenny Mar 19, 03:52 PM #
love the original, toasted and buttered. yum yum! :-)
— Simon Food Favourites Mar 19, 04:01 PM #
fruit mix with nutella. and if i’m feeling extremely fat, butter and nutella on a microwaved bun :)
— Audrey Mar 19, 05:09 PM #
Traditional, toasted with butter.
— Fiona Mar 19, 05:12 PM #
Another vote for toasted and buttered! I also quite like the choc-chip ones done the same way :)

—xo.
— R. Mar 19, 05:20 PM #

— Amber Mar 19, 08:15 PM #
I like mine plain, where I just break it apart from the rest and chomp chomp…and go get more.
— May Mar 19, 08:51 PM #
My favourite way to eat hot cross buns is toasted, only lightly on the shiny side but more so on the side that has been cut. Then while they are still warm you add WAY too much butter and then eat them before all the butter melts. Awhhh….sooo good!
— Brooke Mar 19, 10:47 PM #
Hot cross buns! I like mine plain, especially the mocha flavoured ones… oh pure bliss!

I love mine just by itself!! my favorite is mocha!!! ohhhhhhhhh so wanna eat one right now! :9
— Catherine Mar 20, 12:07 AM #
Traditional is the best but I also love their mocha and chocolate chip ones too! Toasted with butter is the way to go for sure, there is no other way to eat them!

— Amy Mar 20, 11:25 AM #
If it’s the fruity ones – warm from the grill with melted butter and a cup of tea.

If it’s the choc chip ones – warm from the grill with melted butter… and a warm mug of milo.
