Danish Cinnamon Wreath

Making breads and pastries in a wreath shape is very popular in Scandinavia. It makes sense for the customer who wants more than half a dozen Danish or rolls at the same time, and because forming wreaths is faster for the baker than making individual pieces, it is less expensive. A wreath also looks good displayed alone or on a tray with other rolls or pastries. The épi (wheat sheaves) design is definitely the most common. This shape can be made very quickly and looks appealing.
