Junior League of St. Louis’ Cinnamon Rolls

In the early 1940s, the JLSL headquarters were located in the Central West End, next door to Saks Fifth Avenue. At the time, part of JLSL’s community outreach revolved around a small kitchen and Tearoom where members not only served food, but also developed JLSL recipes.

JLSL lore has it that a devoted member and a few of her friends happened upon the idea of creating a JLSL Cinnamon Roll, and they spent hours in the kitchen perfecting the recipe. Almost instantly, the Cinnamon Roll was a mainstay on the Tearoom menu, and baking became a daily operation. By the 1960s, JLSL Cinnamon Rolls were a St. Louis classic, with hundreds baked for luncheons and parties – and you can imagine what the holiday season baking was like!

When JLSL moved from Frontenac to Des Peres in 2005, internal production of the Cinnamon Roll ceased. Three years later, a group of Sustainers worked diligently to replicate the recipe, and JLSL Cinnamon Rolls were reborn.
