Cinnamon Roll Day – a day for one of my favorite sweet treats the Cinnamon Roll. Also known as Cinnamon Bun Day / Kanelbullens Dag #CinnamonRollDay #CinnamonBunDay #KanelbullensDag

These rolled pastry treats are made with cinnamon and sugar are very yummy. They often topped with a cream cheese or other type of icing. Sometimes sprinkled with nuts like walnuts or pecans.

Cinnamon Bun Day

This day was started in Sweden by Hembakningsrådet (Swedish Homebaking Society) in 1999 as Kanelbullens Dag. This day is also know as Cinnamon Bun Day. 2019 marks the 20th Anniversary. Which is observed annually on October 4.

Swedes eat a lot of cinnamon buns, with one 2010 study claiming that each Swede eats about 316 cinnamon buns a year—and that’s not even counting those made at home!

Cinnabon Cinnamon Rolls are one of the best kinds of these pastry treats.

Two types of Laurel trees, Cinnamomum Cassia, and Cinnamomum Ceylon, produce the two most common forms of cinnamon, called—you guessed it—Cassia and Ceylon. The former is redder, more pungent, and what Cinnabon selected as the spice base for their buns.

When I worked at Domino’s, a couple of the managers would make us all cinnamon rolls, using the pan pizza dough and the cinnamon sugar mixture and butter that Domino’s used. Those were very good too. (No they didn’t use the garlic butter! – Just saying!) They were not a menu item, but should have been.

So go out and eat a cinnamon roll on this day. Like we need an excuse to.

I also like to buy the canned cinnamon roll dough and use them in my Belgium Waffle Maker. They cook really fast that way. Don’t rely on the auto done feature, or it will over cook them!
