The Sweet Saga of Cinnamon Snails- A Tale of Taste and Tiny Hands
"Dancing with fragrant whiffs of cinnamon, our beloved Kanelboller roll out of the oven – not perfect, not identical, but that's the beauty of homemade. As the spicy sweetness fills the air, tiny hands reach for these cinnamon wonders, some big, some small, some slightly skewed but all perfect in their imperfections. As we nibble on these Nordic delights, we revel in the distinct warmth and depth of our favourite cinnamon – Cinnamonum verum. Its nuanced flavour and enchanting aroma are a reminder of why in our home, we value the subtlety of true cinnamon over the brashness of its common counterpart. Join us in our cinnamon journey, as we roll, sprinkle, and savour these cinnamon buns, each telling a tale of Scandinavian baking right here in our kitchen."
