Gluten-Free Hot Cross Bun Macarons

Available from 10th March 2025

Easter wouldn’t be Easter without a Hot Cross Bun. The warm spices, the hint of orange zest and the nostalgia they bring flooding back this time of year. I remember toasting a hot cross bun before school and slathering it in butter before running out the door for the bus, the cold air still lingering and daffodils starting to bloom.

We’ve taken everything you love about a classic hot cross bun and infused it with our signature French macaron recipe. Expect the same comforting blend of cinnamon, orange zest, and vanilla, as you bite into luxury macarons with a soft, chewy shell. But if you’re gluten-free, traditional hot cross buns might not be on the menu. That’s where our Hot Cross Bun alternative comes in.

Unlike traditional hot cross buns made with wheat flour, our Hot Cross Bun Macarons are naturally gluten-free and made with almond flour for a light, delicate texture. So whether you're coeliac, gluten-sensitive, or just looking for something new, you can still enjoy an Easter treat that’s just as indulgent.

Our Hot Cross Bun Macaron is available exclusively as part of our Easter Egg Macaron Gift Box, alongside the Mini Egg Macaron and the Creme Egg Macaron. So if you’re ready to swap your bun for a luxurious macaron, now’s the time!
