Nothing compares to sweet cherry during the warm weather months. Twisted and swirled with a concentrated cherry-almond filling, these sweet rolls get their luxurious texture from Platinum Yeast from redstaryeast. Flavored with lemon zest, vanilla bean paste, and a pinch of spice, this filling is bursting with cherry deliciousness and pairs perfectly with soft, buttery pastry. With their sweet-tart flavor and the addictive added crunch from sliced almonds, these sophisticated sweet rolls will be a new breakfast staple!
