Woman Shows Easy Trick for Making Canned Cinnamon Rolls Taste Like Ones from the Bakery
Canned cinnamon rolls are a convenient breakfast favorite in many households. They are quick, affordable, and easy to prepare. However, many people feel that they lack the rich, homemade flavor and soft texture of bakery-style cinnamon rolls. Now, one woman has gone viral for sharing a simple trick that transforms ordinary canned cinnamon rolls into bakery-quality treats with minimal effort.
This easy method requires only a few additional ingredients, but the results are surprisingly impressive. The rolls come out softer, richer, and more flavorful — almost as if they were made from scratch.
Why Canned Cinnamon Rolls Taste Different
Most refrigerated cinnamon rolls are designed for convenience and long shelf life. Because of this, they may:
Contain less butter than homemade versions
Have a lighter filling
Bake up slightly dry
Lack that deep, caramelized bakery flavor
The viral trick enhances moisture, richness, and texture, giving them that indulgent, freshly baked feel.
The Easy Bakery-Style Trick
The secret is simple: add heavy cream before baking.
Here’s how it works:
Ingredients:
1 can of refrigerated cinnamon rolls
1/2 to 1 cup heavy cream
Optional: extra butter, brown sugar, cinnamon
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven according to the package directions.
2. Place the cinnamon rolls in a baking dish as directed.
3. Pour heavy cream evenly over the rolls, allowing it to soak into the dough.
4. (Optional) Sprinkle a little extra brown sugar and cinnamon on top for deeper flavor.
5. Bake as instructed on the package.
6. Once baked, spread the included icing while the rolls are still warm.
That is it. The cream seeps into the dough as it bakes, creating a soft, gooey texture similar to bakery-style cinnamon rolls.
