A cinnamon roll (also cinnamon buns and cinnamon swirl) is a type of pastry found commonly in North America and Northern Europe. The cinnamon roll was originally invented in Sweden. It consists of a rolled sheet of yeast dough onto which a cinnamon and sugar mixture (and raisins in some cases) 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 (often cream cheese based) 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.
