Experts reveal the 'best' supermarket hot cross bun for Easter - and they cost just 40p each

Easter is just a couple of weeks away, meaning you've probably started to see some common treats popping up on shop shelves like eggs and novelty chocolate. And one of the most popular snacks at this time of year is the hot cross bun - fluffy, spiced cakes packed with citrus, dried fruits and bearing the familiar cross shape on the surface.

So if you want to stock up for any guests you have coming over for Easter, or you just want to treat yourself, it could be useful to know which supermarket stocks the 'best' ones in terms of taste. Thankfully, consumer experts at Which? have carried out a test to determine just that - and the winning buns cost just 40p each.

In the test, 75 hot cross bun enthusiasts carried out blind tasting sessions on 10 different supermarket offerings from the likes of Morrisons, Asda, M&S and more. And the winners were Asda's 'Extra Special' Extra Fruity Hot Cross Buns, with a score of 75 percent from the participants.
