  9. With your thumb, carefully push up on the center of the cinnamon roll to make it look like it has risen in the oven. A little pop is all you need!

Let me see how many things I can do with these cute little cinnamon rolls that looks so real that they look good enough to eat. This will be a great gift to add to their food collection. Maybe make a little bake shop box to put them in so they can pretend to go to a bakery. Put on a homemade felt plate and use as a centerpiece. So simple and easy to make and a great project for the whole family.
