The Banana Boogie Bakery in Belair has officially been crowned Australia's top hot cross bun at The Baking Association of Australia's Victorian Baking Show.

The popular Belair bakery has just brought home the gong for the Australia’s best hot cross bun at The Baking Association of Australia’s annual Victorian Baking Show. Banana Boogie won out against 143 bakeries who entered the Victorian Baking Competition, with judges tasting and testing 593 pieces of product. But that’s not all. The bakery also won second prize. That’s right. The top two places in the nation. You can’t get better than that!

But hot cross buns aren’t the only thing on the menu at Banana Boogie. If you’re a sweet tooth, you’ll be drooling over their tempting range of treats like the Biscoff Hedgehog Slice, Peanut Butter Custard Doughies, and Piña Colada Vanilla Slice.

If you’re feeling ambitious, Banana Boogie is on the hunt for a new baker to join their team. Imagine being a part of the crew that creates the best hot cross buns in the entire country. That’s some serious bragging rights right there.

Where: Banana Boogie Bakery, Shop 4&5, 10 Main Road, Belair
When: Monday to Friday 7am – 4pm; and Saturday to Sunday 7am – 2pm
