Limited-edition Gingerbread Caramel Spread hits shelves for Easter

2026-02-09

Easter just got sweeter! We’re excited to announce our collaboration with New World, bringing you the Gingerbread Caramel-filled Brioche Hot Cross Buns, freshly baked in store.

We’ve been quietly crafting the perfect gooey Gingerbread Caramel filling especially for this surprise collab.

To complement the buns, we’ve crafted a special edition Gingerbread Caramel Nut-free Spread. It’s smooth, scrumptious, and packed full of nostalgic flavour. Add some extra indulgence to your hot cross buns or get creative with breakfast, desserts and baking.

Made right here in Aotearoa New Zealand, it’s gluten free, vegan and nut free, with no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives.

How to use Gingerbread Caramel Spread

Spread Gingerbread Caramel on hot crumpets, stuff a stack of French toast, swirl into a cheesecake or chocolate brownie, stir through Greek yoghurt or blend into a milkshake. Or enjoy it straight from the jar on a spoon (go on, we know you want to...).

There is no need to refrigerate the spread after opening. Simply store in a cool, dry place and use within four weeks.

Hop along to the shops

Barker’s Gingerbread Caramel Spread and Hot Cross Buns will be available at New World supermarkets from 9th February until Easter weekend, or while stocks last!
