Hot Cross buns

It’s basically a sweet spiced bun with raisins and other dried fruit in it that has a cross on the top. I think they are eaten in other countries but they are from the UK. They’re generally eaten around Easter but you can buy them all the year. Around Easter you can get specially flavoured ones like chocolate or salted caramel. They are usually eaten toasted with butter, unless homemade and fresh then you eat them warm, still with butter of course.
