Aldi Salted Caramel Blondie (£1.19 for pack of four)
Kicking things off on our list of the weirdest hot cross bun flavours are Aldi's Salted Caramel Blondie Hot Cross Buns. As a self-confessed blondie obsessive, I was pretty excited to see these on the shelves at the budget supermarket chain. Each hot cross bun is filled with salted caramel fudge pieces, toffee fudge pieces, and blonde cocoa chips. A dream for any sweet tooth.
What I liked: As soon as I tore open the packet, I was hit by the delightful smell of the buns. These blondie hot cross buns have a subtle sweetness that tickled my tastebuds as opposed to overpowering them. They didn't even need butter to be enjoyed.
What I didn't like: Blondies are famed for their dense, moist, gooey makeup, and these didn't have that same texture. They were slightly dry, and could have done with some more white chocolate chips to compensate, in my humble opinion.
