The tastiest hot cross buns at Waitrose

The Waitrose range this year has something for everyone - (Alice Reynolds/The Independent)

This year, I took on the difficult task of finding the best hot cross buns, which meant munching my way through a mountain of them. These fruity, spiced treats are one of the highlights of the season and after working my way through more than 20 buns from supermarkets and bakeries, Waitrose’s offering stood out.

Waitrose’s hot cross bun selection spans its budget-friendly essential classic range, where each bun costs 25p, to more decadent flavours like white chocolate and lemon. But after some mouth-watering testing, these two hot cross buns stood out and are the ones to buy in your next food shop. Read on for all you need to know about my favourite hot cross buns from Waitrose.
