Another trip to Muskoka means some more goodies brought back for review. :) Das Schmeckt is a relatively new European-inspired bakery in town that features a hodgepodge of delicious-looking baked goods; their main attraction seem to be butter tarts, at least judging from other customers, and while they looked pretty good, this time I was in the mood for something else.
That something else turned into this sticky bun. At first, it didn't look like anything particularly out of the ordinary. Rolled around in a spiral with each layer rubbed with cinnamon, the amazing part of this bun was the sugary glaze that was poured over the top and then pooled at the bottom to form a caramelized crust of sorts. In the end, this turned this treat into kind of like a hybrid between a cinnamon bun and a kouign amann: a buttery, yet fluffy yeast dough with a slight flaky crust on the outside and just the right amount of cinnamon. Then, add onto that the most delicious topping and you get a baked good as close to perfection as possible -- this was so good! It's been awhile since I've reached the top. *-*
