Meyer's Bakery

The finished product: a batch of Danish kanelsnurrer, fresh from the oven.

Do the twist: it might take a little practise to wrap the dough of your first cinnamon swirl.

Cinnamon swirls are a great project to try at home, combining easily accessible techniques with more challenging ones.

Here Claus Meyer, founder of the international chain Meyer's Bakery, slices dough to make kanelsnurrer cinnamon swirls. In many ways, he says, the Covid-19 crisis has wound up bringing him closer to his guests and customers. Alongside his colleagues and friends, Claus has started livestreaming cooking classes and talks through social media.
