Easter is just around the corner, and this year our favourite baked treat is getting filled with a whole bunch of delicious and daring toppings.
From the 20th to the 31st of March, a Woolworths ice cream truck will be making its way around Auckland and Tauranga, scooping and serving up hot cross-bun sandwiches 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.
Pair it with your favourite ice cream and top it off with some deliciously sweet or bold and daring toppings. There are classic sweet-tooth favourites like bananas, strawberries, sprinkles, and chocolate sauce.
Or if you are feeling a bit more adventurous, there are also bacon bits, marmite, kimchi and blue cheese to choose from.

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