Open the refrigerated tube by peeling back the paper. Separate the pre-cut dough circles. Place them on an ungreased baking sheet, leaving some space between them. Bake in a preheated oven according to the package directions, typically until golden brown and puffed. Once baked, you can enjoy them plain or drizzle them with the included icing for extra sweetness. They are best served warm shortly after baking for the most enjoyable texture and flavor.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to larger cinnamon rolls, these mini versions bake faster and are portion-controlled. Their smaller size means they cook through more evenly and quickly, providing a delightful bite-sized experience. The dough is typically softer and more tender due to the shorter baking time.
Who it is for

How to keep the rest
Refrigerate the unopened tube until ready to use. Once opened, store any unused dough in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. For best results, bake the dough promptly after opening the package.
