cream cheese roll

Filled breakfast bread

A cream cheese roll is a soft bread roll with cream cheese baked inside or spread on top, popular in Asian bakeries.

The filling is typically sweetened, creating a mild, slightly tangy pastry.

Some versions feature the cream cheese swirled through the dough or piped into the center: I grabbed a cream cheese roll from the Korean bakery.
