Origins and History:

Cinnamon buns are believed to have originated in Sweden, where they are known as "kanelbullar." They were first made in the 1920s and became popular in Sweden in the 1950s. Today, they are a staple in Swedish cuisine and are often served with coffee.

Finally, a glaze or frosting is often added to the top of the buns.
