1 Done	To make the Bun Dough Grease a large glass bowl with the oil and set aside. Sift together the dry ingredients, keeping aside 5 ml of the sugar. Dissolve the reserved sugar in the tepid water and add the yeast. Set aside for 5 minutes. The mixture will foam when ready. Pour the yeast mixture and egg into the centre of the sifted dry ingredients. Mix together to form a soft dough then knead on a lightly floured surface for 10 minutes, until pliable and elastic.
2 Done	Proving Place the dough in the prepared glass bowl. Cover and leave to rise in a warm place until doubled in size. Knock back the dough and knead in the fruit and chocolate chips.
3 Done	Shaping and Baking Dust a large baking tray with some cake flour. Divide the dough into 12 portions and shape into balls. Arrange the balls around a small cake pan on the baking tray, to form a wreath shape, and cover. Leave to prove until doubled in size. Preheat the oven to 220 °C.
4 Done	To make the Piping Dough Mix together the piping ingredients and place into a small piping bag. Pipe crosses onto the buns and bake for 20 minutes, reducing the temperature to 180 °C after 10 minutes.
