Cinnaholic is a vegan cimmamon rolls place.  They give vegans a nice alternative to Cinnabun.  They have a few location in the LA/OC area.  I went to their Brea location.  A small shop with tables along the wall and the counter on the left as you enter.  I seems like an ice cream place, but the smell of cinnamon rolls is all over.

One thing I notice, there is only a very small size, near the OC Health Department sign, that tells customers this is a vegan place.  If you didn't know this was vegan, you would never guess! 

They have a display with the name of the cinnamon listed.  But, what they don't tell you is that there is no special price for these cinnamon rolls.  The pricing is the basic $4.75 for the old school cinnamon plus 25 cents for the frosting and 50 cents per topping, each one had at least two toppings.  So each one was $6.   They are served warm.

You can also put as many toppings and frostings you want.

German chocolate- This was my favorite.  Lots of coconut and walnuts.  The cinnamon roll itself is very soft, a bit chewy, but good texture and it holds up to the toppings!

Apple crisp- Surprisingly very little apple flavor. 

Smores-this was very good, but the graham cracker texture and flavor were off.  I would get this without the graham cracker and put regular graham crackers instead.

Peanut butter and jealous- This was just ok.  The chocolate chips seemed off for peanut butter and jelly. 

Service was good.  But, they should tell you the cinnamon rolls displayed are priced by the number of toppings. 

Cinnaholic was fine, but just too pricey to make this a regular stop.
