In the 1910s the first cookbook with a recipe for cinnamon rolls was published, and since that time cinnamon rolls have become quite popular in many parts of the world, especially Europe and North America. In Sweden October 4 has been celebrated as Kanelbullens dag (Cinnamon Roll Day) since 1999; on this day Swedes compete for who can bake the most tasty and/or beautiful cinnamon rolls-and no surprise: they also consume quite a lot of 'em -and in the United States, both cinnamon rolls and the related honey buns are very popular foods, so much that the Tampa Bay Times has reported that inmates in Florida prisons buy 270,000 honey buns a month, and use these as currency, bribes-and, of course, ultimately a sweet treat.
