Bakery brands and retailers are making it easy for loved ones to show how much some-bunny means to them with an array of Easter-themed treats.
From Hot Cross Yumnuts and extravagant cakes to vegan mini loaves and gingerbread, there’s plenty to rabbit on about.
As an Easter bakery staple, hot cross buns are already flying off the shelves with the UK’s largest retailers offering traditional ones alongside some more innovative flavours.
Here’s our pick of some other seasonal creations now on sale:
Marks & Spencer
Marks & Spencer has taken hot cross buns one step further with the invention of a Hot Cross Yumnut. The seasonal twist on the retailer’s signature doughnut and yum yum hybrid is made with a light textured dough that is rested for a minimum of 18 hours. It features a mixed spice fondant topping with flavours of cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger, and is crossed with a white fondant icing and milk chocolate chips.
