ABC7 Rachel Brown said she didn’t know if she’s ever been this excited.
Cinnamon rolls, in all sorts of fun flavors and sizes, like their gigantic cinnabun cake, which is super popular for celebrations.
Here, your cinnamon rolls come with a side of hip-hop.

Cinnabuns range in price from about $8 to $13.
