Used to make my own when the children were little, but although I bake a lot, I haven't made hot cross buns for years, shame really as home made are the best!!. I will though be making at least one easter cake for the children with chicks and chocolate eggs etc. on top.

I would also like to make a simnel cake, something like hot cross buns I've not made for years,. I have all the ingredients including a packet of marzipan left over from christmas, so all I need now is the inclination, maybe tomorrow!!
