All About the Cinnzeo™ Brand

Regular guests know Cinnzeo™ Bakery Cafés for our freshly baked rolls, but those new to the franchise may not be familiar with the brand itself.

Curious about where Canada’s favourite cinnamon roll originated?

Read on to learn all about who we are, where our stores are going, and what makes the Cinnzeo™ brand so special.

Proudly Canadian

You know that warm feeling of holding an oven ready cinnamon roll? The excitement of biting into gooey melted brown sugar and sweet cream cheese frosting? Well, that’s exactly the same feeling the Cinnzeo™ brand aims to capture.

And we are pretty good at it!

Cinnzeo™ is a proudly Canadian brand. Since 1987, we have expanded to offer our magical cinnamon roll experience to a global audience. In fact, there are 70+ Cinnzeo™ franchises worldwide. However, the first Cinnamon Roll Bakery actually opened right here in Calgary, Alberta – over thirty years ago. It’s hard to believe, but time flies when you’re eating delicious food!

Today, Cinnzeo™ is an international brand. But we have never forgotten our Canuck roots. Canadians are known for being friendly, hardworking, and championing the environment through sustainability. These values shine through in our bakeries.

We are:

• Friendly: Each guest is welcomed and appreciated. From the moment the smell of cinnamon hits your nose, the team provides a superior level of service led by our expert bakers.

• Hardworking: Cinnzeo™ staff work hard! We handcraft our products and use only the highest quality ingredients (such as dragon cinnamon and homemade dough) to ensure our baked goods taste great, every time.

• Sustainable: Did you know? A cup of Cinnzeo™ coffee is custom-roasted and fair-trade organic.

As an iconic Canadian brand, we are delighted to uphold these core Canadian values.

A Fresh New Look, Same Delicious Taste

If you are new to the franchise, then you might be wondering about our colourful new Brand Identity. This is the latest and greatest change to Cinnzeo™.

Yup – we re-branded!

In 2019, Cinnzeo™ decided to pursue a new creative look that better reflected our vision for the future. Cinnamon Sugar, White, Crimson, and Warm Dough colours, bold fonts, and updated menu pictures highlight the best of what we offer. Nowadays, a Cinnzeo™ franchise is immediately recognizable anywhere in the world…be that close to home here in Alberta or further away in Mexico!

Brad Turner, Cinnzeo™ CEO sums it up best:

“The new design is to convey the joy of Cinnzeo™ fresh baked products and the welcoming experience our customers find at each location.”

A Unique Spin on a Classic Treat

In addition to image, Cinnzeo™ has also introduced new items to the menu.

Under our re-branding strategy, bakery shelves include the following tasty products:

• Chocolate Cinnamon Roll

• Cheese Roll

• Gluten Free Vegan Cinnamon Roll

• Mini Breakfast Roll

• Cinnamon Twist

• Mixed Berry, Strawberry Banana, Mango, and Pina Colada Smoothies

• Wraps, Sandwiches and more

The classic Cinnzeo™ Cinnamon Roll will always be available – don’t worry!

Potential franchisee partners who grew up enjoying the classic taste of Cinnzeo™ cinnamon rolls will still be able to share their love of the swirl, just under our fresh new look.

As a brand, Cinnzeo™ is excited to step into the future.
