With Easter just around the corner, preparations are underway to make the most of the celebrations despite self-isolating, Easter eggs, hot cross buns, and all!
Traditionally eaten on Good Friday, hot cross buns signal the end of Lent – and the beginning of cheat days. If you haven’t got the ‘baking’ gene, or don’t have the ingredients or kitchen setup to make your own, we’ve cooked up a list of bakeries serving up the best freshly baked hot cross buns in Singapore.
Cedele

Besides the classic hot cross buns, they’ve got some amazing options, like a vegan Pandan Coconut version, a savory Spinach Cheddar take, and an Orange Cranberry Brioche.
