 Boston bun |
A Boston bun is a large spiced bun with a thick layer of coconut icing, prevalent in Australia and New Zealand. Traditionally the bun contained sieved potato,[1] and modern versions sometimes contain raisins. It is often served sliced, to accompany a cup of tea. The origin of the name is unknown.[2]
In New Zealand they're often called a Sally Lunn, especially in the North Island.
Boston Bun is also an electronic music artist signed on Ed Banger Records
