C\u00e2u tr\u1ea3 l\u1eddi ng\u1eafn g\u1ecdn:<\/strong> The cinnamon rolls people line up for in Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City) are baked fresh through the day right here in B\u00e0n C\u1edd Ward, District 3 \u2014 so they\u2019re soft and pillowy, never dry.<\/p>\n

We use a light and fluffy<\/strong> enriched dough with the cinnamon-sugar rolled right into the middle<\/strong> (so the crunch is inside<\/em>, not a sugar drip poured on top). Then, we finish them with real cream cheese frosting<\/strong> \u2014 not the thin, cheap icing most places use. It\u2019s the unapologetic American cinnamon roll one of us grew up missing, made properly.<\/p>\n

Where the craving came from<\/h2>\n

This one is personal. Garret, our American co-founder, grew up on the cinnamon rolls you smell from across a mall \u2014 the Cinnabon<\/a> kind: huge, soft, unapologetic.<\/p>\n

When we started Dulce, a proper cinnamon roll was one of the first things we wanted to get right, because it\u2019s exactly the taste of home you can\u2019t easily find here.<\/p>\n

So we didn\u2019t reverse-engineer a trend. We built the roll we actually missed.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What we wanted: the crunch inside<\/em>, not poured on top<\/h2>\n

Here\u2019s the thing most places get backwards. A lot of cinnamon rolls are fine bread with a heavy sugar glaze drizzled over the top to do all the work. Ours go the other way:<\/p>\n
