“The Easter Bunny and Hot Cross Buns” by Alex, lazaros, Nick Tsekrezi, Nick Banakis

A characteristic figure of Easter. Children believe that if they are good children, the bunny will bring them chocolate eggs. Of course, the Hare began as a symbol of fertility and the root of the custom is found in Germany, where it is also celebrated to this day.

On Good Friday the English are quite restrained with food. Traditionally they
eat hot raisin bread, the Hot Cross Buns, so called because of the cross they carry on them. Hot cross buns are  a
kind of sweet like tsoureki. They are eaten throughout the holidays, but according to tradition they must be
served on Good Friday.
