Sometimes the life of a writer is really a challenge. Like when I volunteered to research places in the Fort Wayne area that make delicious cinnamon rolls. Yeah, I know, it's a tough life. As they say, someone's got to do it and it might as well be me!

The Best Cinnamon Rolls in Fort Wayne

1. Rise'n Roll Bakery

This place was recommended to me by several people. Now I know why. These cinnamon rolls are available in two flavors - regular rolls with a rich and decadent cream cheese frosting. Or you can get the caramel frosted cinnamon rolls. This is when decision-making becomes sweet.
