Our Pick of 2023's Best Hot Cross Buns and Assorted Easter Treats

As we kick off the Easter holiday, it’s time to hunt down the city’s best HCBs. From a traditional style packed with fruit and spice to something more inventive, like a spiced custard-filled doughnut-croissant hybrid, make sure you cross one of these buns off your list. Alternatively, break tradition with several spins on the humble hot cross bun. Quincy Malesovas joins us with her guide to Easter treats including booze-filled chocolate bunnies and a super-sized Golden Gaytime gelato-packed egg.
