Hi Eve, I have no idea what could've attracted your ants :( but maybe they have been there a while and you just didn't know until today when it was suddenly warm and they could come out.

However, if you want to commit ant genocide in a bunny friendly manner, then remove the buns for half an hour and pour the boiling contents of a kettle over the nest. It might take a few goes to get them all, but eventually they will all cook or drown. What a way to go . . .
 
use citronella/lavender/tee tray combi in a spray bottle - dilute (in water) six drops of each in 100ml bottle and spray liberally.
