Breadsmith cinnamon roll

The short:

The best one so far. 7/10

The long:

This is a great roll.

Unlike the others, it doesn’t have thick cream cheese frosting, but the icing/glaze that it does offer provides the right touch of sweetness.

The cinnamon flavor is delightfully strong.

The spiral layers of the roll are easily separable for incremental consumption.

The size is perfect: not too large, not too small.

The only downside is the consistency of the bread.  It’s a bit on the overmoist/gummy side.  I would have preferred an ever-so-slightly drier interior.

Still, overall, very good.  Perhaps the best one so far.

Key stats:

  • $2.25 + tax  per roll
  • Icing, like a glaze.  Didn’t appear to be cream cheese based.

Where to find it:
