This will be fun to watch.
It’s been a while since I’ve eaten one. But as I recall it is sweet and fried, and VERY yeast-ey.
I don’t know how you could make it without cinnamon. Just a hint though. Isn’t there a pastry flavoring like the Danish swirl mentioned above that could be used at a low percentage and at least hint at cinnamon?
Also, I haven’t tasted my frosting from flv in a while but isn’t that more like a creamy butter frosting?
I would think it would be more powdered sugar and grease.
I’ll have to get one tomorrow.
Take it apart by flavor in my mouth.
Some great suggestions in the comments.

Unless a miracle happens in steeping the sweet dough and cupcake batter are not the answer LOL

I’m going to see if marshmallow might be a flavor that’s hiding in there. Also, i like (I think it was) Fidalgo’s idea of building a bakery base. Get TJAT out of the way and then build on it with the other ideas.

yeah that’s a real problem. From what I remember (and I’m diabetic so it’s been a hot minute) it was almost a dry cake base with a super sweet glaze on top.

A recipe like this is going to need to be done in two stages imo the first is getting the bread right and within that bread you can definitely have some things that help both the pastry and the glaze… Almost any heavy pastry recipe is going to need a long steep …The way flavors meld together into the base ( VG and PG ) jasnt changed …

I just ate one and the bread is like those long mapme bars , fluffy , airy a bit moist nothing dry from what im tasting… These types of bready based recipes are difficult to say the least …this is going to many Versions

Like I said it’s been a hot minute… I’ll have to wait until my blood sugar is really low and sneak a bite again LOL Back before cinnamon actually made me cough, I remember using Baked cinnamon roll from OSDIY for this.

Maybe you pulled the ingredients for a chocolate glazed one lol…I think joy will be an important flavor for this mix, and if you pick up that ooo powdered sugar then mixing it and flv frosting 0.5% each would be a good starting point probably, I go 1% powdered sugar and 0.5% frosting in my mixes that need an icing, but I’m looking for a heavily powdered sugar flavored glaze, and iirc honeybuns icing doesn’t taste that heavy…
I think the honey note is gonna be the hardest flavor to nail down really, if I was making the bread base I would use joy, maybe some yellow cake and zeppola, both low, and i would go a little heavier on the joy than normal because it has a little bit of grease to it at and above 1%, but I also don’t get the stale beer note from joy that most people seem to. If you happen to have rfsc elephant ear it has a grease type mouthfeel that would work well too.
If yellow cake and zeppola didn’t work then I would try ooo glazed donut fairly low with some yellow cake and rely on the joy again. Good luck! I might have to play around with this, I’ll be doing some mixing tomorrow probably.
