Cinnabon has doubled in size over the past 10 years because who among us is able to ignore that cinnamony smell wafting over to us from the Cinnabon in the mall. This video talks about why they're successful along with some other fun and interesting aspects of the company.

When I work at my Cinnabon, sometimes we intentionally overcook the cinnamon rolls to entice more customers and then release the oven doors to overwhelm the mall with the smell. Smart tactic
I think auntie annies does the same
Imagine the mall if every restaurant used this method
You heartless bastards! My wallet hurts.
Your not lying I remember when I was a child walking into the mall with my grandma I could sent the smell from far away I felt like I was in heaven remember just starring at them through the glass with my mouth watering I tried my first one oh my it was the best experience ever had me saying in my head where have you been all of my life! 🤤🥺😋
@@wantshelamokgohloa641 Not many foods have such a pleasant smell that fans out well. Cinnamon is pretty unique in that regard, that it us used as an ingredient and for its scent
When she was a teen, my daughter worked at Cinnabon. They paid better than most places and she brought home some. They were so good.
Huh.. cool!
Awesome story!
So lucky!
No it tastes baaaaad
@@upsidedownv1ncecuh962 no
I used to regularly eat at one of these in a mall in Omaha. Great place. The manager, Gene I think his name was, really knew his stuff.
New someone would get this lol
i havent heard of gene in like a decade, i think they replace him or something
I also went to that cinnabon regularly, as I used to work security at that mall. The manager gene was a top guy, used to talk football with him... haven't been back since as I moved state about a decade ago. Good memories.
Yeah he was a good guy, but I remember he collapsed one day and never was the same. Wonder what happened to him
He defecated through a sunroof!!!
The B could be to make the French word “bon”, this means good or, likely for this case, candy or sweets in general. So taking the name apart it comes out to cinnamon-candies as the Cinnabon’s have a candy like topping.
Shank Adams I beg your forgiveness Lord Arbiter of comments! I thought my plan to intentionally only look at the first five comments to see if anyone said what I was thinking was perfect, but alas you have caught me red handed! I shall except whatever cruel, but justified punishment you have decided for me.
Smart man, you are a.
Exactly my first though
This was also my first though.
Smart
If you’ve ever tasted a Cinnabon, you’ll know why they are successful
Correct
Those things are disgusting.
Young_ Zombling_ its ok to have opinions, even when they are wrong.
I have, and the cinnamon is too overpowering and overwhelming. It does not taste as good as other cinnamon rolls from places that don't even specialise in cinnamon rolls. Too much cinnamon makes me cough uncomfortably.
Young_ Zombling_ you’re literally high they are fucking bomb
Cinnabon is like Krispy Kreme it is a treat and not something you eat on a regular basis.
@@48Boxer 🤣
ya once maybe twice a yr.
Mind ya business 😂
@@sourgreendolly7685 Who the hell are you?
YEP...
I ate one of they’re rolls and honestly, one of the tastiest things I’ve ever eaten. I’m not crazy about cinnamon rolls but I really enjoyed it.
The frosting is the best part for me I always order extra frosting they put it in a little plastic cup and I spread it on the hot cinnabon its good
You should follow this up with Auntie Anne's Pretzels.
Boo Auntie Anne's pretzels. Go Wetzels Pretzels!!!
@@TheCrazierz Auntie Anne's started in the Amish country of Lancaster Pa. One county of from me.
I uh... 85th this idea.
@@TheCrazierz Wetzels Pretzels?
I don't know either of these...
Good in french is "Bon". So that could be why.
That's what I always assumed.
I thought maybe something to do with bonbons meaning candy. Cinnamon candy roll, idk. I was never sure lol 😂
I thought because here at least we call them hoony buns 🤷🤷
Kinda Joe if you ask me
And bread is pain, but thats not important right now
Have you considered doing a video about Jiffy? They make the corn bread mixes for like 50c a box! It’s just a little company that’s been around for a LONG LONG TIME!
Jiffy! yes, I have not had a pantry yet, in almost forty years now, that does not include a box of Jiffy.
I like the cornbread and it makes a terrific little Mexican style casserole with chili and cheese.
And I confess my guilty pleasure are the blueberry muffins and I can really bake a good muffin but these for some
reason are simply a childhood memory that remains tasty.
Unlike those soggy limp Brussel sprouts, please try roasting them, Mom.
I can no longer find the boxes of jiffy frosting.
Jiffy mix is awesome
Seconded.
Presumably no connection to jiffy lube.
It’s because gene takovic is the manager!
I love Cinnabon so much I never eat there. I'd be on "My 600lb Life" for real.
ma laaf
Funny you would say that. I’m retired and looking for that last great goal to achieve. Being on TV …. but all I’m good at is gaining weight. So I gorge myself on Cinnabon, Krispy Kreme and Budweiser daily in hopes of becoming over 600 pounds. It’s going well! I only have 425 pounds to go!
You'd be famous!
@@vetealv2174 I think DetCordXXXI was on my “600 Pound Life”, season 6, episode 3. I was season 6, episode 4 & 5. I got 2 episodes because I died.
The Pillsbury Cinnabon flavored rolls don't taste enough like the rolls in the mall locations for me to get excited about.
Ya,they kind of have this underlying unpleasant taste and they give me a stomach ache
You need to buy Pillsbury icing
@@NebulaShadow3280 cake icing?
Icing already comes with the rolls.
Jedi Knight Jairin Aiki I have to eat those because I’m allergic to eggs
Yeah, Pillsbury tried, but just not as good.
You should do Enterprise Holdings aka Enterprise-Rent-A-Car. They have a great back story and they are bigger than you know.
Let just say every birthday cake was a cinnabon roll... that how good it is for me
So, Cinnabon is basically just the successful child that was ignored by his parents?
There are dozens of us !
I wonder if the blue color of the boxes was chosen to send the subliminal message that Cinnabon rolls are top of the line, much like the "1837 Blue" colored boxes signifies top of the line fine jewelry sold by the Tiffany company?
Interesting. Have you read the classic marketing book written by Vance Packard, The Hidden Persuaders, 1957 ?
@@wynstansmom829 No. I'll have to check it out.
What is "1837 Blue"?
@@hughkhong6580 It's the shade of blue the Tiffany company chose as their signature color.
Bath and Bodyworks uses that same shade of blue. It makes me think of the Blue Bonnet margarine (which has mostly yellow packaging but the font is blue) and Blue Bell Ice Cream. I think we just really like blue with shopping, lol.
Cinnabon, its smell lingers throughout malls. When I shop at Sears (still open in my area), the Cinnabon smell hits you when you leave the store and it smells so good. Love cinnamon rolls
Auntie Anne’s too! Love it haha
@Avery the Cuban-American. You must be the person in the world that has the most similar interests as me. I see your comments all over the place.
why do i see you on every channel
I shouldn’t have watched this while I’m high. Now I want Cinnabon 😩
Fuck same LOL
Me too
It’s been a year, did you get your Cinnabon?
There's a great Cinnabon at my local mall, they must be using a new business strategy, because the guy working the counter looked happy as he could be when he was serving my Chillatta, when he's always seemed so dour before. Hopefully he lands on better times soon.
Because they have Saul Goodman as their manager of course
YES!
It's one of those things where the smell draws you in and you get one then as you eat it you think this is too much, why did I get it? Mrs. Fields is that way too but you can just get one cookie. Cinnabon has to be eaten fresh and not worth saving for later.
I am unimpressed with Krispy Kreme. Cinnabon, on the other hand, is legitimately yummy.
Not crazy about either, but I prefer Krispy Kreme
I refer to Krispy Kreme donuts as "grease pucks".
I won't lie, the only reason I know about Cinnabon is because of Better Call Saul lol
Cinnabon is not successful everywhere. They tried entering Eastern Europe around 2014, but left within two years. It was good while it lasted though, one of their locations was close to my university so for a few months I visited Cinnabon regularly. Their rolls were kinda expensive but they smelled and tasted amazing.
@@Caliban743 The one I went to in Sweden put frosting on them.
No one cares about Eastern Europe
I feel like Cinnabon is going to struggle in the up coming years because people are not going malls as much as they used to
Possibly, but I definitely don’t see malls “dying” as people keep saying they will. The things that I see closing in malls are mostly department stores, puppy mills and candy shoppes. These I would say are more based off a failure to innovate and changing interests. People definitely don’t hate cinnamon rolls and the Cinnabon stores low operating costs leave lots of revenue for innovations. From my perspective the fall of Cinnabon won’t come till there’s a superior competitor or a large enough health movement to scare people away from the sugary rolls. Until then Cinnabon will likely remain alive and well.
People aren't going to the *Amazon warehouses* like they used to
I think I’ve seen them sell their rolls at Walmart and other grocery stores. They can sell their rolls in Frozen sections.
my malls are always PACKED
@B B If malls had quality shit, it might be a different story. Globally-recognized tailors, watch vendors etc instead of a family of 6's weekend foray at D&B's.
I actually prefer the canned cinnamon rolls you make at home. However, they are successful because they’re taking a classic food that everyone knows and loves BUT could typically only enjoy at home. And making it available virtually everywhere and on the go.
They’re also relatively fresh at all times. Typically if you go into any other bakery and get a cinnamon roll it was like made yesterday or at least several hours ago
I remember first hearing about Cinnabon in Animorphs as one of Ax’s first foods in human morph and him going absolutely bananas over the taste. My local two malls didn’t have a Cinnabon so I had never had one before, but I figured they must be amazing. I wouldn’t get my first taste until middle school and I was on a mission trip with my Church’s youth group, but damn it was so worth it. P:
Omg that’s so funny 😂
I still miss the Cinnabon at Union Station in Toronto. I always immediately knew where I was when I smelled them. Mmm!
Merry Christmas! 🎄
I like Cinnabon, but you're right it's a bit overrated. Like, I think my biggest issue with them is that even though they're tasty, I feel super unhealthy eating there. They're just so rich, eating one feels like I've eaten enough calories for a full meal
Finally...someone sane. Healthwise you're only supposed to eat HALF OF ONE as a meal AND that's if you can take all the carbs/sugar
True but indulging once in a while is harmless. It's when you indulge constantly where you get into trouble!
Because a cinnabon is a full meal's worth of calories
Eat 3 and become a man. P u s s y
Where are all the high metabolism people that can eat one without worrying about carbs LOL 🙋♂️
I swear, the cinnabon cereal is the most slept on cereal ever. If you've never tried it before, I genuinely feel bad and I hope they bring it back.
Who'd have thought, sugar and fat sells well in a depressing financial recession.
Cinnabon also sells their products in Schlotzsky’s restaurants.
That's because they are both owned by Focus Brands
Chris H Ah, makes sense. I did not know that. Thank you for pointing that out.
Yes, they do, and the Cinnabon's at the Schlotzsky's I went to was horrible. They tasted like cheap store bought cinnamon rolls and did not have that authentic "Cinnabon in the mall" taste.
I dont know not a single person who has eaten at schlotzskys
@@thenightprowler3426 It just depends on where you live. Schlotzsky’s is very popular in Texas.
In many languages, like French, “bon” means good, so I’d assume Cinnabon was thinking of that when naming the company
Interesting note: Cinnabon sold some bottles of their Makara cinnamon for a while some years back. I still have some that I use for oatmeal and when baking banana nut bread. I'd like to get some more of the stuff now.
I had always thought their cinnamon rolls were like 2000 calories apiece, so that nutrition info was actually a pleasant surprise.
Bon is French for "good"
Also, a cinnamon bun is another name for a cinnamon roll.
Can anyone else confirm this
@@BleedForTheWorld you have youtube but zero access to google?
@@BleedForTheWorld can confirm, have access to common knowledge
@@nknasi 👏
Red FX especially since google OWNS UA-cam! Lol
Hey I like the video but the map showing places with Cinnabon is wrong, there is Cinnabon in Africa, in Egypt. I see them all the time here.
Omar 6500 also in India
Also in Pakistan i see them everywhere.
He even includes multiple clips of Cinnabon in Russian yet that's not on the map either
also saudi arabia I live in a small part of a small city but i can walk to my mall and find a cinnabon
Also here in South Africa
I previously worked in cinnabon, and i enjoyed working there for 3 years as a cashier because i like the the morale and the management of the company. I happen to know Kat Cole, she's the president of cinnabon. Everytime she's visting my store she always asks for any feedback and suggestions from me and my workmates. That's why I like working at cinnabon because my boss really do care for its employees who are working in the stores.
The first time I found out was from "Better Call Saul".
Ha, I remember them blocking the store off in our mall to film that.
@@anaerobic damn you could've met the man slippin' jimmy himself
Because their Cinnamon buns are insanely good .
*their
That's it, really. They started with that simple, delicious and unique product and marketed it the right way. Other restaurant companies might have gone overboard by loading up their menus with a bunch of other items, expanding into stuff like sit-down restaurants, etc... But they stayed focused on simplicity that was possible because their buns are addictive as crack.
That's what I said out loud when I read the title 😂
Raskolnikov70 it really is it. This video should be 10 seconds long. All the franchising menu options etc has nothing to do with it. The buns are good, they sell buns therefore lots of buns get sold because they are good.
@@QdsWhhj The details matter though. Compare them to a company like McDonalds or Starbucks. Those places started off with simple concepts (fast, cheap and good burgers, good coffee) that allowed them to expand and become popular, but then they stagnated because they started adding menu items and trying to be all things to all people. They've got hundreds of items now, way more than anyone ever asked for, and that bogs down the business with increased internal costs, shipping and logistical nightmares, and employee burnout because they have to deal with too many things at once. Too many corporate execs tinkering and trying to fix what isn't broken...
Maybe the "bon" is from the french word "bonbon"?
[A bonbon is a sweet or small confection, especially a small bun coated in chocolate. The word originated from the French language and simply means "(hard) candy"]
Charsept that’s what I always assumed
It could also be because bon means good in French
YES!
Bob literally just means good in French
@@makaveliba4243 wow man didn't know BOB meant that lmao
I haven't been a Cinnabon in years, but when I was able, I loved it. On a side note, I found Cinnabon ice Cream from Breyers in the supermarket and boy, it was good!
Before today I never knew that there were actual Cinnabon stores, I only saw their products in supermarkets like Walmart and thought nothing of it. I loved their cereal because it tastes good and it took longer to get soggy in milk but I hadn’t seen their cereal in ages.
Nothing but “name” recognition. When KispyKreme came to town, a local news team did a blind taste test. KrispyKreme, Dunkin, and the local chain grocery... H-E-B came in first then Dunkin and KrispyKreme last almost.95% of the time. Yet when they opened there was a line around the block. Amazing.H-E-B is the local grocer.
HEB brand anything is pretty solid 99% of the time.
Dunkin donuts are terrible. Krispy Kreme is ok. I never think about buying donuts in HEB.
Jaron H-M and that’s why KrispyKreme wins...
HEB sour cream donuts are unbeatable.
I lived in TX in 2002-2010...miss HEB a lot.
I love KrispyKreme donuts, they are lighter, fluffier, or maybe just not as dense as other donuts.
I (living in Germany) was shocked to hear Cinnabon is active in Germany, then I checked and found that there apparently is (or was) exactly one Cinnabon in Germany and that was inside a US army base. I say "was" because all the proof of the place existing I could find was a few Facebook mentions from 2016.
So I don't think that really counts, even if the place is still open.
I was also wondering about Germany being hilighted on the map! I'm in Berlin and we don't have any here, but plenty of Dunkin Donuts, for whatever strange reason (I can't understand why that chain is so popular in Germany) 🤷♀️
@@carmenrachelweigel4520 Yeah. I don't like their donuts much either.
Regarding Cinnabon, I looked some more and found an invitation claiming Cinnabon plans to expand to Germany and asking people interested in opening a franchise to contact them, but that invitation or ad, or whatever it is, was from January 2017 and since not a single franchise has opened in the 3 years since then, it seems they must have given up on their plans to come to Germany.
From a USA person whose friend who was not stationed there, but in another country close to it. ::: apparently the troops will vote on which businesses will be served in their respective oversea bases bi annually. My guess is it got rotated out.
I remember living in the us military base in Wiesbaden Germany that had a cinnabon in it before. I don't think it's there anymore though
@@jaylinwyatt2422 The one I found is in Rammstein. But as I said, it is unclear whether it still exists.
Bring back good memories! When I used to work for Cinnabon back in High School, but I do gotta say the quality has changed from quality to quantity!! The dough, used to be made from scratch, now it’s sheets coming in frozen, wouldn’t doubt that the frosting isn’t made from scratch anymore but awesome vids
I can't express how much I love Cinnabon and how much I wish there was one were I live 😭
Is Cinnabon in Australia any good, actually baked on site as they do in america?
Or is it like Krispy Kream is in australia; where they have some sad little kiosks hawking cold staleness trucked in yesterday from some factory?
So far, I’m pretty sure we only have one Cinnabon, in Brisbane, and they definitely assemble and bake in store
Yep. They opened there first store in Toombul Brisbane a couple weeks ago just across from where I work and I can confirm it is baked on-site... They are however served cold however, at least for now seeing as they've consistently had a line of 5 plus people (most of the time more) since they opened.
@@Rowan_Gray Served cold? The hell is this tomfoolery?

Cinnabon was always a special treat shopping with my wife at the mall. She’d want some and of course I did too. Gooey stuff, good flavor, didn’t care that the nutritional value was lacking.
I live in Britain, and cinnamon is my favourite thing ever. I once had one and loved it so much, and now I wish it existed in Britain.
I don’t think it’s incredible, but that every once in a while when you get one just feels so glutinous, and I love every second of it. Thing is, I’d never have more than one, or get them multiple days in a row.
Cinnabon tastes like diabetes
Cristian Villanueva so tasty I guess???

Do a video on a grocery store called Meijer, I’m very curious to see how they’ve kept up with other companies in the same business.
I worked there on and off from 2004-2010 while I was in school. I loved it even though we were severely underpaid. The classic roll was $2.99 when I started. A few months ago my fiancé and I decided to get a mini roll at the mall and I was shook when they said that tiny thing is now $3.19 😆
In 2023 a minibon is now $5.50

I love Cinnabon so much but I can’t eat them often. I treated myself to some for my last birthday. 🎉 Great gift to self!
I’ve only ever eaten Cinnabon because it’s “attached” to Schlotzsky’s? I couldn’t tell you where there’s a stand-alone store in my area
You don’t have Russia on your “Cinnabon map” (in the very beginning of the video), yet four photos in this video are in fact from Russia. Great video though! Thanks.
I'm shocked. I thought, since you were talking about the restaurant group were going to say that the one thing they all had in common was the cinnamon rolls and that was the srpringboard to the new company. Great video as usual.
I know my maternal grandmother loved eating Cinnabon as her favorite treat whenever my mom and I would be at the mall as a kid. I miss her so much now.

They also sell sin abban's in the refrigerated section at Dollar Tree.
Wwwhhhaaattt? Which one
The smell is what got me at a mall in Great Lakes Illinois. I thought it was a candle shop or nicknac shop like I had in my home mall. As I got closer to it I saw these huge delectable cinnamon rolls sitting there waiting on me to eatem up with a cold glass of milk. I'm a cinnamon addict anyway I've been in love with them since 1996. They were also featured in the movie Time Cop. For a short while during the holidays they had a cranberry version of their rooll which wasn't so great. For what ever reason they changed the pecan one up from the original that had a small amount of icing but a lot of caramel,and pecans almost like a sticky bun but the new joint they have now is just lazy a.f the coat an already iced cinnabon in caramel and pecans.
The scent indeed is their best advertising method. They're life savers at airports, always giving me a boost when changing planes on long trips. All I have to do when I get off the plane is follow my nose 😉! Even now I'm dying remembering that heavenly aroma and taste! For me, Cinnabon is the best! 💛😘😋💜

I loved Cinnabon from the smell of the store, and when I bought my first one. I liked when they came out with the mini buns.
I believe it came to our mall in late 1980s.
I like the history you told.
This company is a true business...their practices demonstrate a true understanding of how humans behave and react to certain things. They're so good at this that they don't even have to advertise much.
I think the experience has much to do with falling in love with something like this. I loved soft pretzels, and can't find them around here. To me personally it relates to moving when I was young and loving soft pretzels and none being around. Find a comfort food and people will buy it no matter what.
you should talk the rise and fall and rise again of “guess jeans”
There are numerous Cinnabon franchises here in Egypt, too!
Oh wow! The cafe I worked at is the same location that Brusseau's restaurant was! That makes sense as to why cinnamon rolls are a staple of our bakery, probably to honor her. We have an old newspaper article up in the cafe of when she ran her restaurant and I immediately recognized her face and name when you mentioned her! I'm shocked I worked there for over a year and never learned that!!
When I think Cinnamon rolls the first thing that comes to my mind is Cinnabon. And that's probably the only place, at least in a mall/theme park in the US i'd feel comfortable getting something like a Cinnamon roll from.
It's probably more that it's the only reliable place for a cinnamon roll fix that's fresh out the oven.

My sister worked at a Cinnabon in 2017. She was made to clean the walk-in dough vats between batches. One day, she was scraping the remaining dough from the sides of the sweetening cannon when someone leaned on the mixing lever. You guessed it. She was immediately killed by the kneading attachment. It's how she would have preferred to go. I don't hold it against Cinnabon, but you would think the family of an employee killed in their mixing machinery could occasionally get a free cinnamon roll, or God forbid, a discount, but no. I think they owe us that, at least.
I absolutely loved them about 12 years ago when I used to get them but my latest trip to get some found that they have gone downhill since they started using frozen dough and less frosting. Thankfully you can buy more and top it yourself. I am not sure if they use frozen dough at all locations or just gas stations kiosks.
