Kanelsnegl · Copenhagen

Kanelsnegl is the Danish cinnamon snail: a coiled bun of laminated dough swirled with butter, sugar and cinnamon, baked dark and glazed with a thin sugar syrup.

Kanelsnegl became a Copenhagen staple in the 20th century at neighbourhood bakeries; Sankt Peders Bageri codified the supersized Wednesday version, the onsdagssnegl, in 1988 and now sells around 4,000 a week. The modern viennoiserie wave has put Juno the Bakery's cardamom-leaning version alongside as the city's reference rolls.
