Brasserie Bread will be baking especially created hot cross buns for Pepe Saya’s Last Supper pop up at Bitton in Alexandria from the 23rd of February to 24th of March. Buttermaker extraordinaire and our dear friend Pierre Issa is taking dairy to a new high with a dedicated butter pop up shop designed by stylists Jan Frosh and Lucy Tweed.

Brasserie Bread Hot Cross Buns: A New Recipe

There’s nothing more delicious than hot cross buns slathered with cultured butter this Easter. Brasserie Bread’s hot cross bun clusters are exclusive to the Pepe Saya Last Supper pop up.

Our handcrafted buns are made using a new recipe this year. The artisan Easter buns are baked using single origin wheat from the Southern Flinders Ranges. The wheat grains originate from a single source, providing 100 per cent traceability right back to the Australian farms. Find out more about the story behind Single Origin here.

Enriched with eggs and butter, our traditional hot cross buns contain only the best quality ground spices, ginger, raisins, sour cherries, and orange peel from France.

Popping Up with the Artisans

Of course Pepe Saya’s well-loved products like creme fraiche, mascarpone, buttermilk, and butter are on offer at the pop up. But Pepe is going all out with a few exclusive offerings – there will be seaweed butter and smoked butter, too.

Pepe keeps good company, and the pop up is no exception. Brasserie Bread Single Origin loaves and hot cross buns, golden trout caviar and salmon roe caviar from Yarra Valley Caviar, Zokoko chocolate, Olsson’s salt, Bitton’s jams and sauces, Egganic eggs, Country Valley milk and yoghurt, and Dessertmakers’ desserts will also be for sale.

Bitton Cafe

Every Tuesday chef David Bitton is hosting three-course dinners every Tuesday with Pepe’s products as the hero. Book for dinner through Bitton on 9519 5111 or bookings@bittongourmet.com.au.

The cafe will also have a special daily menu, including Pepe Saya buttermilk pancakes as well as Brasserie Bread hot cross buns with Pepe Saya butter.
