Lets talk Cinnamon Rolls...

A before church trip for Sunday morning hot do-nuts or cinnamon rolls used to be a family tradition...but I've let it slide in recent years, due to a lack of decent options.

Old style yeast do-nuts, with real honest to goodness powdered sugar and milk glaze, seems to have disappeared from the landscape.

Cinnamon Rolls that are decent seem to have gone away also


Anyone have suggestions? Ginger Browns are the antithesis of what I am looking for...they are heavy, greasy, with no real flavor, other than butter.


Thanks

Donut town in McKinney has great donuts.......

If you’ll come to this place.... I’ll buy. Not great but not bad.... great coffee.

I like the cinnamon rolls at Grandys. It really sucked when I was diagnosed Type 1 diabetic; but every once i a while I'll see if they have a fresh tray and get one without frosting. .

Cinabon is still around.

Shape donuts out of canned buscuits, fry in oil. Make glaze from powdered sugar and warm water. Add just enough water to the powdered sugar so it will pour, like syrup consistency. I also like those cheap orange flavored cinnamon rolls in the can with the little tin of topping at the end.

I like raisins and nuts in my cinnamon roll.

Shipley’s makes a pretty good cinnamon roll. Don’t know if you are close to one or not.

Max's in Allen is the best donut joint in the north suburban area of DFW. I drive by almost a dozen donut shops to get kids donuts from there.

i DON'T TALK cinnamon rolls




I EAT 'EM!


All the donut shops around here are owned by vietnamese people.... donuts are poor quality.

True story,
about 2 years ago my dad walked into a donut shop, of course, vietnamese were working behind the counter, and a young looking (remember that) girl walks up to take our order, while were waiting on the donuts, my dad tells the girl "Well, i bet you're glad school is out" another older vietnamese lady who appeared to "Run" the place said, " Are you kidding? she thirty two year old!"

Same here, get them if not glazed

Been there several times, I don’t get it... taste like most other donut shops...

Donut town in McKinney.... in a class all by themselves...

Manske Rolls were the hands down best and you used to be able to get them in the frozen foods section in some grocery stores. The bakery is in San Marcos........sure miss them. My waist line doesn't though.

Cinabon sux....

Lulu's cafe in SA.

They would come to the dorms at SWT at night and peddle those things, couldn't resist. That was in the early 70's, haven't had one since, don't know if they still exist

... People who dont know about Manske Rolls dont need too.. I had one last year at Gils....They are in a category by themselves...After they took them out of stores I contacted them in San marcos.. They couldnt keep up.. I got a few guys together to open a FDA commisary to begin making them again... Couldnt come to a financial agreement...

Preach!!!! You can order them shipped...People on this thread should try them... Manske Rolls San Marcos... 30 dolars for a dozen.. They are like Round Rock donuts.. Life Changers!!!
