What a helpful post, particularly at this time of year, Jane Adams. My Mom made these variations from scrap as I was growing up a long time ago. Me? Never took the time to learn her secret. Thank you for sharing the technique and for the memories. Cece

Thank you for this. I have been making the flake shape by cutting out individual circles. This method is so much quicker using the scissors. Such a time saver! Thanks again!

Those pumpkin rolls in the you tube video are adorable!

There are also a lot of sweet breads and great ideas in other Rhodes you tube videos.

Thanks for letting us know about these!
