  • Patisseries usually don't dabble with hot cross buns but Jean-Claude is a delightful exception. The French aren't known for super-sized portions and their baked goods are no different but these petite buns manage to satisfy.

    The airy dough is warm, soaking up butter like a satisfied sponge. Each of the best elements of a hot cross bun - the sweetness of the currants and raisins, colouring of the cinnamon streaks, and the stickiness of the smooth glaze coating, are perfectly balanced.

    Chez Jean-Claude Patisserie is open 6 days a week at Subiaco and West Leederville.
  • Mary Street Bakery - Street Bakery, 507-509 Beaufort St, Highgate 6003/@-31.9382772,115.8696021,17z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x2a32bac40f1256d5:0x5aa91dd181f9814f 507-509 Beaufort St, Highgate - 0499 509 300;
  • Mary Street's buns are slowly but surely rising to the occasion, signalled by the shimmering cross atop a darkened glaze.

    Organic golden Sun Muscat raisins burst through the crust of the dense dough, dotted with zesty orange and lemon peel and scented with spicy ginger and subtle vanilla.

    Mary Street Bakery is open 7 days a week at Highgate, St Georges Terrace, City Beach, West Leederville, and Claremont.



  • Abhi's Bread - 270 South Terrace, South Fremantle WA 6162/@-32.065624,115.7525522,17z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x2a32a181998fdf65:0x7e705d11b3dff548 270 South Terrace, South Fremantle - (08) 9430 4373;
  • Occasionally the bakers at Abhi will dabble with a rotated X or a smiley face to mark their creations. But during Easter, their hot cross buns return to tradition with a thick, straight cross emblazoned over a smooth hot cross bun.

    Healthy sprinklings of juicy raisins avoid the excess of sweet and sticky glaze on inferior buns. Choose from organic wheat or spelt dough, enjoying the simple pleasure of slathering butter over the warm surface before eating.

    Abhi's is open weekdays at South Freo. They are also at the Stirling and Manning Farmers Markets on weekends.

  • More tea? The North St bakers have seen the sunrise many a time while their buns rise. The sunlight kissed their teapot, inspiring the clever trick to soak dried fruit in pure Aussie Lady Grey Tea.

    is open 7 days a week. Call 9286-2613 to pre-order your batch of 6 hot cross buns.
  • Lawleys Bakery Cafe - 616 Beaufort St, Mount Lawley WA 6050/@-31.9355651,115.8716423,17z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x2a32bac114aa1a25:0x624d21f4a94b36ca 616 Beaufort Street, Mount Lawley - (08) 9328 6866;
  • Traditionalists and chocolate lovers can rejoice with Lawleys' latest batch of baked beauties.

    The classic hot cross bun is all about the dough, hearty and chewy, slowly baked and topped with a coarse cross.

    Best enjoyed while warm to bring out the zing from a spoonful of orange puree and ginger spice. Look out for the bursts of sweetness from a modest drizzling of dried fruit, bringing smiles with each bite.

    If too much chocolate is barely enough, grab a box of the choc variety, satisfying your cocoa fix.

    Lawleys Bakery Cafe is open 7 days a week at Mount Lawley, Shenton Park, Wembley, North Beach, Wembley Downs, Fremantle, Malaga, and Mount Claremont Markets.
