The Spice girls return...

Inspired by a conversation on what pastries, food and drink fads had hit town before, on what had come, gone and are sometimes, sadly missed, we hit upon the idea of cinnamon swirls.

Yes, those snails of sweetness that were pre-Rotiboy (one of the sadly missed, by the way), pre-donuts. They're not the flat maraschino-topped ones you find in Delifrance. You have to recall the cinnamon trays of almost-square, tall buns that are spongy, airy, chewy, but not crusty ... that was the aim here.
