BARBADIANS WERE OUT and about yesterday trying to gather their share of two traditional treats for Good Friday and the Easter season – hot cross buns and fish.
At Vince’s Bakery in Eagle Hall, St Michael, Shandell Clarke said their buns were selling well. She said they took special pride in their once-a-year treat.
“We mainly do them on Holy Thursday only. We keep it traditional with the big white cross – some people do something small or just cut a cross but we do it the traditional way. After all, that is a real hot cross bun,” she said.
Clarke added that they were going to make around 200 packs – about 800 buns.
At nearby Bakers Mart, manager Anderson Nicholls said they had baked their buns earlier this year and had made less. (CA)
