Can you survive a week in the Bun Run factory? Orders start off slow on Monday then ramp up towards and including the weekend!

Dedicated to Terefang, who actually doesn't like buns, except the famous Kaisersemmel  and its "lye bread" variant.

Ingredients

In our factory, you are equipped with:

Green bottle: What this bottle contains, no-one really knows. But it turns regular buns into hot cross buns!
Seed shaker: Gone are the days of sprinkling seeds on by hand. We put poppy seeds in a pepper shaker. At least, I hope so.
Jam jar: It contains really runny jam. The cheapest jam available in the supermarket.
Honey: We don't have any of this sweet substance yet, but rumour has it the bees will be ready later in the week.

To apply a topping to a bun, drag one of these items over a bun, or throw it at the bun if in a rush. This will deplete the ingredient, but don't fret for it will magically refill as soon as it lands on the counter.

Customer orders are displayed on the screen. It is important to match these using only the ingredients provided. No saliva.

Bad buns

Occasionally, mistakes are made. A bun which doesn't meet the order criteria makes it to the end of the assembly line. What happens in this scenario? It goes straight to the trash!

Only one bun fits in each trash can. Are they big buns or small cans? In any case, once all full, the day is ruined. A much better idea would be to fully stock the shelves near the ceiling.

Buttons

Some buttons are at the top-right of the screen. Cryptic, eh? From right-to-left:
