I've been a Cinnaholic fan ever since I tried them back in 2009 at their Berkeley, CA location. It's so awesome that AZ finally got their very own franchise! This location is deep in east valley. An odd location, but judging how consistently busy they were, this doesn't seem like it'll be a problem for them.
The rolls are as amazing as ever. Lots of custom rolls or you can build your own. My friend and I split a few things:
Cookie Monster - an extremely rich and decadent roll with cream cheese frosting, cookie dough, chocolate chips, and chocolate sauce. At over 1100 calories, this one will definitely take up the majority of your daily caloric intake, but it's SO worth it. (Tip: the rolls are huge, so you can definitely eat this in portions or share it)
Caramel Apple Pie - caramel frosting, apples, pecans, pie crumble, and caramel sauce. I'm obsessed with caramel everything so this one was my favorite. This wasn't as heavy as the Cookie Monster, but still sits at a hefty 960 calories, so I was happy to have someone with whom I could split it.
I also love that Cinnaholic has expanded beyond just cinnamon rolls. They offer soft, chewy cookies, brownies, and even Dole Whip! How exciting!
The employees were all very friendly and helpful. For as busy as they were, they did their best to keep up with the messes, trash can filling up, and water cooler running low. They were working so hard and still remained pleasant.
On my way out of town, I got a few orders of Baby Buns to go. You get 3 small buns in a pack for $5 with one icing flavor included. You can buy additional icing for 0.25. I informed them that I'd be traveling so they packaged them accordingly, and the owner gave great tips on keeping them fresh. Nearly a week later and these buns are still extremely fresh. So impressive!
Did I mention it's 100% vegan?! You'd never know if I didn't tell you. Check them out!
