Decorative Cinnamon Rolls

 

Kitchen Decor

Who doesn't love a nice pile of cinnamon rolls on the kitchen counter?  Well now you can have them all the time and they won't go bad, because they aren't real!  Read on to see how easy they are to create:

The first thing that I did was to mix up some salt dough and roll it out.

You can find my recipe in this post.

Next I trimmed my roll-out into a square shape, then sliced that square into strips.  Each strip will end up being one completed cinnamon roll, so keep that in mind when determining your thickness.  I made a total of 8 rolls at the thickness pictured here, using one batch of salt dough.

Fold each strip over lengthwise creating a rounded edge on one side and a pinched edge on the other...

...and then roll the strip into a cinnamon roll shape with the rounded side up and the pinched side on the bottom.

I baked the cinnamon rolls at 250 degrees for about two and a half hours 
(the time could be more or less depending on the thickness of your rolls).

Once baked they were nice and dry, but quite pale looking.

To fix the paleness I watered down some brown water color pigment and brushed it on the rolls. letting it fall into all of the cracks. 

You can find my water color set here.

Tip:  Be careful here as adding water to your salt dough creations will cause them to soften back up.  You will need to plan on letting them sit out to dry thoroughly again before storing them.

To create my icing I poured on some white acrylic paint, letting it pool and spill here and there as real icing would.  To finish I sprinkled on some cinnamon and then let dry.

And here are my completed fake bake cinnamon rolls, I love how yummy they look!
