This recipe baked up very nicely. I added chopped candied citrus peel to the dough, in addition to the raisins. I thought the cinnamon was a bit much, and would cut it in half next time.

I used dried apricots cut up into raisin-sized pieces, and the flavor with the cinnamon and orange peel icing was divine. The buns didn't rise as much as they should have, so I'd advise that if you're going to make this, proof the yeast by letting it dissolve in the warm liquid before adding other ingredients. Nonetheless, everyone loved them. They tasted especially good heated up in the microwave.

These were very yummy! I made them for Easter and turned out very good! The orange flavored frosting was so good! Will definately make again!

These were very good and I have been making them for eons. I do add glaced fruit bits such as lemon, cherries etc in very small amounts. A good way to make the crosses is to prepare the frosting in a ziplock bag and then just cut off one corner and use it to decorate the buns. Sometimes I add small amounts of sliced almonds to the mix.

These turned out so great! I just didn't wait long enough for the buns to cool and added the frosting too soon which made the crosses into just blobs...but they still tasted good!
