My cinnamon rolls were ready in about 25 minutes, with the edges slightly crispy and the center gooey.
I poured my icing — which had softened from sitting on the counter — over the cinnamon rolls, and it spread out fairly thin. The icing might have had a better consistency if I had kept it in the refrigerator while the rolls thawed, but the directions didn’t indicate that I should have done so.
I informed Magnolia Table about my icing consistency issues, and the brand expressed appreciation for the feedback, clarifying that the icing could be left out without compromising safety.
“Our icing is completely safe to leave out while the rolls thaw and bake, but for those who prefer a thicker consistency, placing it in the fridge is a great option,” Magnolia Table said.
Despite my issues with the icing, the cinnamon rolls smelled inviting, so I was optimistic when I took a bite. It wasn’t bad, but it reminded me of cinnamon rolls I’ve had at the mall. The cinnamon lining the swirl had a slightly artificial taste, and it was almost cloyingly sweet.
I would prefer to eat other frozen or refrigerated cinnamon roll brands over Magnolia Table’s, as I think they taste better and offer more bang for your buck. For instance, you can buy a can of five Pillsbury Grands! Cinnamon Rolls at Target for around $5, compared to the $11.99 rolls from Magnolia Table.
