Easter is just around the corner, and if you're anything like me, you're already salivating over the thought of digging into a pack of hot cross buns. But this year, those beloved buns are getting a frosty makeover.
From the 20th to the 31st of March, a Woolworths ice cream truck will be making its way across Tāmaki Makaurau and Tauranga, scooping and serving up hot cross buns filled with ice cream!
You can choose between their whole hot cross bun selection including Hershey’s chocolate, Caramilk, Brioche, Biscoff and a few gluten-free options too.
They've got a lengthy lineup of toppings including your classic sweet-tooth favourites like bananas, strawberries, sprinkles, and chocolate sauce.
But for those who consider themselves daredevils, there's also bacon bits, marmite, kimchi and blue cheese - which all just seems too much for my tastebuds!

You’ll want to hop on over early because Woolworths says they’ve got limited scoops and buns to serve up at each location.
Grabbing a sandwich for a small gold coin donation seems like a fair deal with all donations heading towards helping KidsCan.
It’s awesome to see Woolworths helping out Kiwi kids and whānau in need.
