Light in Flavour

When you want a delicate sweetness in your baking, using White Sugar or Caster Sugar can provide a subtle sweetness that enhances the other flavours without overpowering them.

Fruity

Using fruit can add a natural, fruity sweetness to baking, creating a refreshing, light flavour or adding sweet tartness. White Sugar or Caster Sugar in baking, allows the flavour of the fruit to shine and Jam Setting Sugar preserves the taste of fruit in vibrant jams.

Nutty

Coconut Sugar bring a subtle nuttiness to baked goods, elevating the taste with a mild, natural sweetness and pairs beautifully with tropical flavours.

Spiced

Using sugars with spices like cinnamon, ginger, licorice or chai can lend a warm, aromatic sweetness to baking.

Caramel

Utilising brown sugars or incorporating caramelised sugar syrups creates a richer, deeper flavor profile, adding a hint of caramel or toffee-like taste.

Chocolate

Chocolate adds a decadent richness to baked goods with its deep cocoa flavour, making it perfect for indulgent treats. Try adding a deep flavoured Brown Sugar to the mix for enhanced chocolate flavour.

Method
Dough: Place dough ingredients into the machine in the order as listed. Turn the machine on using "dough only" function. Grease a swiss roll tin.
When the dough cycle has completed remove dough and knead on a well floured surface until elastic and springs back when pressed. Divide into 12 pieces, shape each into a ball and place close together on tray. Cover and leave to rise for 60 minutes.
Tip: Leave to rise longer for a lighter, fluffy bun.
Crosses: Mix all ingredients together until smooth, pipe crosses over risen dough (use a ziploc bag, cut off the corner and use to pipe crosses).
Bake at 200°C for 20-25 minutes until golden.
Glaze: Combine ingredients, microwave for 1 minute and brush over hot buns.
