Cinnabon buns usually don't even last long enough to cool. They are very tasty! And when you add chocolate and nuts to the cinnamon filling... with these, you think you can at least wait until they are baked - they smell amazing! Shokobon buns simply won my heart and the hearts of my family! I highly recommend it to everyone!
