The European Union is considering a ban on Danish cinnamon rolls, or kanelsnegler.

A recent study conducted by Danish Food Administration has found that the amount of cinnamon in kanelsnegler exceeds the maximum limit. While Denmark can ignore the EU regulation, with EU countries allowed the freedom to retain certain food privileges for the sake of tradition, the government has gone ahead with plans to restrict cinnamon levels to 15 mg per kilogram of baked products.
The move has unsurprisingly drawn criticism from Danish bakers who say that it will be the end of cinnamon rolls as they know it. “Cinnamon rolls are of course a traditional Danish baked product. There is no point in limiting cinnamon. We have used it in Danish baking for as long as I can remember. It's the end of the cinnamon roll as we know it”, Hardy Christensen, head of the Danish Baker's Association, said.
