National Sticky Bun Day,  celebrated on February 21,  

honors the delicious pastry  known as the sticky bun.

This treat, originally called  "Schnecken," is believed to have  

been brought to the United States by  German settlers in the 18th century.

Often served for breakfast, sticky  buns are also sometimes known as  

cinnamon rolls, caramel rolls, or monkey bread.

This day is a perfect opportunity to indulge  in the sweet, nutty, and often caramel-dripping  

goodness of sticky buns, whether you bake them  at home or find the best ones in your city.
