Bacon-Topped Cinnamon Buns

Schlotzsky’s Bacon Bon Has a Sweet, Savory Flavor

Schlotzsky’s Bacon Bon is being added to the brand's Cinnabon menu as a deliciously sweet and savory baked good for customers to pick up on their next visit.

The cinnamon bun is crafted with the signature Cinnabon cinnamon roll with Makara cinnamon and cream cheese frosting, and is topped with ample amounts of crispy bacon bits and a caramel drizzle. The result is a sweet, meaty and slightly salty flavor that will work perfectly for avid fans of the original cinnamon buns to try out.

The Schlotzsky’s Bacon Bon is priced at $4.29 and also comes in a MiniBon version priced at $3.29 each. The menu item is making its way to participating locations now, but only through June 2, 2024.
