Hop into Easter with this delicious Easter picnic feast, featuring a lot of cinnamon, all the classics and other yummy treats, with most of them local!

Sonoma & Three Mills Bakery

Well, it just wouldn’t be an Easter feast without the star of the whole show, the delicious hot cross bun. Put the woollies six pack down and head to your local bakers. Sonoma and Three Mills are both baking fresh buns during Easter, both putting their own twist on the classic. Head to Sonoma for hot cross buns with cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and a house made syrup brushing. Or Three Mills for the classic or a bake at home chocolate cherry bun.

T2

In case is gets a bit chilly, warm up with a cup of tea from T2’s Easter range. Sip on ‘Baxter’s Buns’ a hot cross bun inspired black tea, or a lamington tea with chocolate, coconut and raspberry flavours.

Amici

Add in something savoury to the selection of sweet and order a gooey baked brie from Amici. Topped with cranberries, walnuts and honey, plus crackers and a loaf of bread it is the ultimate picnic treat.
