IGA has announced new hot cross bun flavours, along with the return of much-loved favourites.

New and exclusive this year are the Terry’s Chocolate Orange Hot Cross Buns. These chocolate buns are described as being “decadently rich”, infused with the iconic Terry’s Chocolate Orange flavour.

“When warmed through, each bite delivers a balance of deep cocoa and bright, zesty and orange, with pockets of melted chocolate that make every mouthful a truly indulgent experience,” says IGA.  

The “new and improved” Reese’s Hot Cross Buns are promoted as being “perfect” for the peanut butter fans.

“They’re rich, chocolate fudgy buns packed with colourful Reese’s Pieces,” says IGA. “Shoppers told us that they wanted more peanut butter goodness, so now they include an oozing smooth Reese’s peanut butter centre making them the ultimate salty and sweet Easter treat.”

For those who love a classic, IGA says its Community Co range returns with something for everyone, including:

• Community Co Fruit Easter Buns – 6 pack
• Community Co Fruitless Easter Buns – 6 pack
• Community Co Chocolate Easter Buns – 6 pack
• Community Co Fruit Easter Buns Mini – 9 pack
• Community Co Apple & Cinnamon Easter Buns – 4 pack

“You can feel good eating them knowing that a portion of the sales from each Community Co purchase goes back into causes that matter in your local community,” says IGA.  

The retailer says it’s also ensuring no one misses out this Easter, with gluten-free options available:

• Lifestyle Bakery Gluten Free Hot Cross Buns Chocolate – 3 pack
