| - OH MY GOSH. I went to Cinnaholic today for their grand opening where they offered $1 cinnamon rolls (which normally retail around $5-6).
Forget everything you think you know about cinnamon rolls-- because these are nothing like anything you've ever had. The concept is simple-- choose your cinnamon roll icing flavor and add toppings. But the resulting dessert is incredible. They offer a huge variety of icing flavors, from lemon to chai to hazelnut and everywhere in between. The variety of toppings is just as diverse. Fruit, chocolate chips, sprinkles, cookie dough, nuts, caramel sauce, jam, etc. You name it, they probably have it.
I chose a chai flavored icing with pie crumble topping and I was so pleased with my choice. The result was a huge ooey gooey melt in your mouth cinnamon roll with tons of flavor. I can't wait to go back and try more flavors, particularly the fruitier flavors that aren't as typical for a cinnamon roll.
They also offered a huge "cinnacake", as well as cookies, cookie dough (by the scoop!!!), and Rising Star coffee.
Despite the huge line for their opening day, their staff was kind, courteous, and quick. They even brought water outside to the patrons waiting in the hot sun.
The inside is a little small, but it was hard to get an accurate representation of just how small when it was packed to the brim for opening day. They had several high-top tables, as well as some 2 top tables, so there is an option to sit inside and enjoy your treat.
I was very happy with my cinnamon roll and am so happy that I live so close. They are open until 9pm most nights, so it is a great dessert alternative to ice cream and other nearby treats.
Do yourself a favor and go to Cinnaholic NOW!
