Overview

A box of 4 of our ultra-sticky Chelsea buns and a signed copy of the Fitzbillies book - Stories & Recipes From A 100-Year-Old Bakery, well wrapped in cellophane to keep them fresh on their journey (and keep the bun syrup in). Posted anywhere in the UK.

Fitzbillies Chelsea Buns are made from a sweet bun dough, rolled around a mixture of currants, brown sugar and spices and cut to give their distinctive spiral shape. After baking they are coated with our special bun syrup to make them extra sweet and sticky.
