For a long time hot Cross buns have been a
traditional treat for Good Friday and are available throughout the
Easter season. In old England they were sold by street vendors who
advertised their treats shouting "Hot Cross Buns! "Hot Cross Buns!"
Their cheerful calls were ultimately the inspiration for a nursery
rhyme.
Six delicious buns per package.

Paczki
National Paczki Day!
National Paczki (pronounced "punch key") Day is celebrated on "Fat
Tuesday", the Tuesday before Ash Wednesday. Paczki are super-rich yeast
raised Polish pastries. Traditionally, Paczki were made to use all the
lard,sugar and fruit in the house. We fill our paczki with seedless red
raspberry, prune lekvar, or delicious Bavarian cream filling. What a
treat! You don't have to be Polish to celebrate National Paczki Day.
Enjoy a Paczki!
