Cinnamon roll
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A cinnamon roll (also cinnamon bun) is a type of pastry found commonly in North America and Northern Europe. It consists of a rolled sheet of yeast dough onto which a cinnamon and sugar mixture is sprinkled over a thin coat of melted butter. The dough is then rolled, cut into individual portions, and baked. Cinnamon rolls are frequently topped with icing or glaze of some sort, or most common in northern Europe: nib sugar. The size of a cinnamon roll varies from place to place, but many vendors supply a smaller size about 5cm in diameter and a larger size about 10cm to a side. Notable vendors include Cinnzeo in Canada and Cinnabon in the United States.
Sweden celebrates National Cinnamon Bun Day on the 4th of October, since 1999.
