The food truck trend is beginning to invade parking lots and streets everywhere. But if all the food tastes like Hot Mess Buns, I won’t have a problem with it at all. The Hot Mess Bun truck is one of the newest trucks to take to the streets of the Chandler-Gilbert area.

Run by Jennifer Macpherson and a small staff, the truck has been churning out buns since Friday Aug. 2015. Macpherson has always had an entrepreneurial mind. “I realized that I wanted to put my business sense into something where I thought I could have fun.” Macpherson stated.  

The truck’s main focus is cinnamon buns with enough fixings to satisfy any pallet. The menu begins with a warm, gooey, doughy cinnamon bun. Even if the bun was all you got, it would still be worth it. The bun itself comes with the choice of a maple or just an original glaze. Next, a dollop of cream cheese frosting is added. But Hot Mess Buns does not stop there. From there, the consumer has the choice of adding a drizzle of their choice. From Nutella, to caramel, to chocolate, to white chocolate and, for the really daring, a Captin Crunch crumble that is sprinkled over the bun for the full effect .

My personal favorite is the Trainwreck, which is the cinnamon bun, plus the frosting, plus the drizzle, plus the Captain Crunch. The frosting is definitely sweet, but it does not overpower the roll. Each element shines on its own, but when compiled together, the drizzle, the roll, the frosting, and the cereal unite to become a collection of superior tastes that only Hot Mess Buns can provide.

Every bun that comes out the window not only looks beautiful, but also comes with that fresh out of the oven warmth. The pricing begins at five dollars for the Debacle, which comes with only the glaze, and goes up to seven which is for the Trainwreck.
