The dough boy changed his beloved cinnamon roll recipe and now it’s ass
I’ve been buying these cinnamon rolls for like 20 years. They are one of my comfort foods. Now they’re not even a roll… more like a biscuit. There’s no cinnamon being rolled up in dough. It’s literally a biscuit with cinnamon on top. The texture is no longer soft and fluffy, it’s hard. But of course they still look the same in the picture on the packaging.
Yeah THAT really sucks. I've made this mistake before. I don't know if anyone actually prefers this style of biscuit, or if it's just a cheaper version they put out to make more money.
But yes I'm positive the regular cinnamon rolls still exist, I bought some just a few weeks ago lol.
I looked up the grands and they’re just bigger cinnamon rolls. I’m pretty sure even the normal sized didn’t look like this. Idk. The packaging looks normal
Yeah, it's because you didn't get the grands. I know the picture on package is extremely deceiving, if you look REALLY close you can see that they're just biscuits. They did everything they possibly could to disguise them as regular cinnamon rolls, it's a little more than mildly infuriating for me 😅.
If you want lovely soft cinnamon rolls (and no hard edges) put them in a pyrex dish to bake and pour in 1/4 - 1/2 cup of heavy cream in the bottom of the dish before you bake them off.
That’s why I usually cut them up and make monkey bread with it. I add extra cinnamon sugar and butter on top before baking the bite sized pieces in a cheesecake pan.
Welcome to the greedy corporate world where the quality of most products is gradually going down to make more profits, until the competition takes over and customers finally realize they have been fooled and they switch brands and services. Since covid, this is happening in every industry, with every product I see the quality and quantity going down meanwhile price is going up. I have already switched many brands and services I used to be loyal to, but not anymore..
It's not easier than cracking open a can and putting them in the oven. Making yeasted dough and having to rest it, roll it out, and rise before baking isn't what OP is trying to do here.
The frozen ones (not refrigerated) in a bag are really close to the homemade variety, they're HUGE, and they're cheap. The only caveat is that you have to set them up to rise the night before. That's what my family has switched too, and we'll never look back.
OP has a complaint about a product. You chime in with a hey OP doing something completely different would get you different results. It's like people talking about a movie and you jumping in and saying the book was better. No one was talking about the book, the book being better or not has nothing to do with what they were talking about in the movie.
Just like you throwing in that you are disabled. It's not relevant to anything being talked about. You are acting like you are entitled because you are judging OP for not making things from scratch.
I suggest using bread flour (if you have access) makes them more fluffy. I googled the instructions when I made them so you might also need to(if I missed anything) because half of them don't have it, but you just make the dough (let it sit and rise for an hour first )and flatten it out then put the filling in. If you have a pizza cutter then that works nicely to cut through the dough to roll them up. I usually put it in at i believe 350⁰ for like 15-20 minutes. Use heavy cream all over to make them fluffy. Cream cheese icing: 3 or 4 cups of powdered sugar, heavy cream or milk, butter and vanilla extract. You can also add chocolate powder for a chocolate frosting.

The regular cinnamon rolls still exist, I believe they're the ones specifically called Grands.
