Iced bun

An iced bun is a bread roll made to a sweet recipe with an icing sugar glaze covering the top. They often have a small amount of raspberry or strawberry jam in the centre, which oozes out when bitten into.

Also known as a "Raspberry Bun" they have many variations, mostly in size or shape but not straying from ingredients, though sometimes also coated in sprinkles or coconut.
