a "hot cross bun" is not a cake it is a type of bread roll.
The hot cross bun represents the cross that Jesus died on for us. The cross in the middle of the bun.
The cross on top of the hot cross bun signifies the crucifixion of Jesus. The Hot Cross Bun is therefore traditionally eaten on Good Friday the day Jesus was crucified. Plus, without it they'd just be Hot Buns.

We have hot cross bun because Easter is when Jesus died on the cross. On hot cross buns that is what the cross in the middle is for. Jesus give up his life on Good Friday and rose from the dead on Easter Sunday for all of humanity.
I have been reliably told that the origin of the hot cross bun was that a monk from St Albans Abbey in England made the first hot cross bun s in 1361. The cross was originally just cut in, not piped on & the relevance is obvious. The spices represent the frankincense & myrrh. The fruit represents of the fruit of the Holy Spirit. == == == ==
