I’m telling you, Cinnabon is not about skimping on any ingredients. They weigh everything out, but I think they also put extra in Bob Odenkirk
Debbie even reviewed the script in advance to ensure characters followed proper Cinnabon protocol such as checking temperatures. Bob previously told the New York Times: “I’m telling you, Cinnabon is not about skimping on any ingredients. “They weigh everything out, but I think they also put extra in. “They are unabashedly putting everything your mouth loves into one hot lump—and they make no bones about it. So don’t skimp on frosting.” One fan of the show wrote on Reddit: “Must have been hard to find someone that was both a hand model AND a Cinnabon employee.”
