They are buns made for Easter, hence the Cross. They are also best served hot. Hope that explains your question.

the right origins of warm bypass buns are disputed. The buns have been linked with Easter custom in view that a minimum of the 1300s, while a monk disbursed the buns to the damaging on solid Friday. even with the shown fact that, the emblem of the bypass pre-dates Christianity, and the buns could have initially been exchanged at pagan trip journeys like the Solstice, with the bypass symbolizing the substitute of seasons and ranges of the moon.

Duuuh. Because (a) they should be eaten hot, and (b) they have a cross on them.
The cross signifies the crucifiction. Years ago you could only get them on Good Friday (Easter) but now they sell them all year around.

They have a cross on the top. and they are spicy, or should be, hence 'hot' or it could be that they are best served hot.

hot- being the best way to serve them
cross- baked and eaten mainly in the passover season as a symbol to the way that Christ died.
buns- that just the way that they are made.
