Post #1 - February 8th, 2005, 8:42 amI need to score some hot cross buns before heading to see my mom this weekend. German bakeries preferred. Does anyone know if Dinkel's on Lincoln makes them?

I swear that I checked that site the other day when I originally posted this and that wasn't there. Maybe I'm going crazy.
thanks, this is what I was looking for. Anyone had any experience with Dinkel's hot cross buns? (that sounds seedy, doesn't it?)

Post #7 - February 14th, 2005, 5:46 pmStopped in to Gladstone Park Bakery today and they had some very good looking hot cross buns on display in custard, raspberry, apricot and cinnamon-raisin. I didn't try any, but they looked great.

I stopped in Dinkel's Friday morning. They were selling lemon and custard-topped hot cross buns. Pretty good size with a smattering of raisins and bits of candied fruits throughout. I preferred the custard, but both were very good. A generous amount of cross frosting was a plus. Also a plus were the sour cream donuts I snuck into the purchase. Eight buns and three donuts ran about $9.50.
If I get the chance before Lent expires, I'm going to head over to Milwaukee Ave. to check out stevez's recommended bakery also. Thanks for the tips, everyone.
