For better softness in the baked product, we recommend to wash again delivered raisins/currants and soak them briefly These buns were eaten on occasions like Christmas in the olden days. The name derives from the location and the cross which is made with the knife or the pair of scissors. These buns were also presented as funeral buns in Woudsend a little bit further in the olden days
