The **finger bun** is a fruit [bun](/source/Bun) popular in the [United Kingdom](/source/United_Kingdom); [Australia](/source/Australia), particularly in [South Australia](/source/South_Australia) and [Victoria](/source/Victoria_Australia); and [New Zealand](/source/New_Zealand). At one time it was a bakery and school staple but its popularity has waned.[1] It has been used to help promote awareness of [breast cancer](/source/Breast_cancer).[2]

They are also popular in the United Kingdom where, unlike in Australia, they are eaten unbuttered.[3]
