First Look at the New Cinnaholic Vegan Bakery In Fayetteville

Cinnaholic has finally made its way to Fayetteville, NC, and we couldn't be more excited about the grand opening. The store recently opened at 1928 Skibo Road #116, and offers vegan baked goods, but most importantly cinnamon rolls. Fortunately, the company knows I love sweet treats, so they let me go over to the opening to get a first look. Scroll on to get a look at the yummy treats, as we show you around Cinnaholic in Fayetteville. Rainy days can be tough. The sun is hidden. It's wet and slippery and brings the mood down. And this day was extra gross outside. I was heading back to the office but I remembered an ad floating around Instagram about a new place opening called Cinnaholic and it was about time for the grand opening. I went straight there and I could already see a line developing right around the building. I grabbed my place in line and the anticipation began. Now while standing and waiting it made me very excited and speculated with others in line about how this was going to be. I'm a big fan of cinnamon rolls. Some are two sweet and some are too cakey, so it is a true art form. I was especially intrigued to try this place because all of their products are 100% plant-based, dairy & lactose-free, egg-free, and cholesterol-free...and honestly I was skeptical. As the rain continued falling and the wait became longer we were treated to entertainment from the DJ who just so happened to be the maker of Underground Coffee Culture Co. He had fresh coffee for the people waiting in line which by this point was wrapped around the building. I'm not really a coffee drinker so I didn't partake but coffee and cinnamon rolls seem like a winning combo. One of the Cinnaholic employees brought samples for us in line of one of the products: BROWNIES! Just a slight bit for us to try and it was amazing! And an excellent preview for what's to come. After close to an hour, I finally got to the counter and got to place my order. I got a half dozen of each of the signature rolls & a tub of the edible cookie dough. I loved the purple and white look and the staff was nice despite the overwhelming response. After getting back to the studio, I finally got to try one of the normal plain rolls and I must say...it was a great cinnamon roll. Perfect balance of sweet, but not too sweet. Usually with plant-based or specialized food there is a weird aftertaste but it was amazing. A perfect end to a rainy day. You just gained a new customer!
