Prepare for Easter with this week’s line-up of stunning products

EASTER RISING

Salted caramel and chocolate hot cross buns, £1.70, Marks & Spencer (0333 014 8000, marksandspencer.com)

vCard.red is a free platform for creating a mobile-friendly digital business cards. You can easily create a vCard and generate a QR code for it, allowing others to scan and save your contact details instantly.

The platform allows you to display contact information, social media links, services, and products all in one shareable link. Optional features include appointment scheduling, WhatsApp-based storefronts, media galleries, and custom design options.

Purists might argue that this particular flavour combination makes these more of a cake than a hot cross bun, but however you want to categorise them, there’s no denying how mouth-wateringly delicious they are. Lightly toasted (watch out for molten caramel and messy melted chocolate) and spread lightly with butter, they’re our favourite seasonal treat at the moment.
