Danish pastry - and Rosinenschnecke

Danish pastry

Danish pastry with apricots and cinnamon
Presuming that it is like a Rosinenschnecke.
Most of these Teilchen are called "Danish" or "Danish pastry" in GB. Why Danish I have no idea, but that's what my parents always order when we're in a German café

Rosinenschnecke translates literally as "raisin snail".

I wonder whether those "snails" exist in the English speaking world.

And if so, what is their name?
 
If it is this:
iu

Then it can be called a cinnamon bun, cinnamon roll, or cinnamon danish depending on region

if it is this:
iu

Then it is called a cheese cake

its hard to tell from your website exactly which you are referring to.
 
What do they call a danish in Denmark? What do they call a bearclaw in Denmark?

"The Danish was imported to Denmark during a bakery workers strike in 1850, when Viennese scab bakers were brought in to replace them."

Rosinenschnecke, named after the treat's resemblance to the spirals of a snail shell, and "rosin" any preserved fruit, of the family Viennoiseries (French "things of Vienna") are baked goods made from a yeast-leavened dough in a manner similar to bread, or from puff pastry, but with added ingredients (particularly eggs, butter, milk, cream and sugar) giving them a richer, sweeter character, approaching that of pastry. Rosinenschnecke is traditionally given a sugar glaze coating for the benefit of diabetic sugar comas for those without diabetes, yet. Or "sharing the experience." For those tired of the traditional Dane breakfast, yesterday's bread soaked in flat leftover beer also from the day before, with a rendered chunk of salt pork fat "Rückenspeck" spread on top, schmaltz. Yummy.

I usually only find those around here at Mexican bread stores.

The influence of German migrants to Mexico who also brought the accordion and polka to Mexico. Nothing as entertaining as yodeling accordionist accompanying a Mariachi band performing polka music in Texas chili joints during a breakfast of pepper jellied tamales to cure last night's hangover. :)

I am going back to bed.

That's it exactly!

Only there need not be cinnamom in it - that would be another variety.

What I prefer it this kind of thing - with raisins and vanilla :)
 
In France - especially in Alsace - this type is called " Schneck" :)
From the German word "Schnecke" = snail.

We also call it: "Schnecken-Nudel" = snail noodle

The ones I like are not so much 'cinnamon roll' than like a sweet bread with light cinnamon and raisins.

More like this:

which is 'pan dulce con pasas'.

Now all this pasty and sweet bread talk is making me hungry for some! :2razz:

Great!

Now a little bit of vanilla added - and it's perfect! :)

That damn mescal hurts my head the next morning, each time. My neighbors despise the croaking yodeling. The foreplay makes them jealous.

Thank you for reminding me how much I hate Mariachi. Given a choice of death by being eaten, or listening to mariachi, I would seriously consider death.

The mixture of the polka and waltzes can do that to you. :)

Dang, we gave up all the fun carbs. We had various pastries during our European travels. Some of the cafes have more variety than you could imagine. Yeast rolls of any sort are very yummy. My favorite are kolaches, sweet or savory. Oh, now I want a Schwarzwalder Kirshtort or a Sacker tort. Bad thread, bad bad bad. :)

So do I! :)

And there is a title for the Schwarzwälder Kirsch-Torte: It is called "the Goddess in Red and White and Black!"

Red for the cherries
White for the cream
Black for the chocolate!

:)

I wonder why it's called Danish pastry instead of Austrian pastry.
 
Strange, that in English ist is "Danish pastry!"

Just as if Denmark had invented it - and not Vienna!
 
During times of Corona I did not visit bakeries that often.
But this week I had a great Rosinen-Schnecke once again.
People who never enjoyed a Rosinen-Schnecke have missed a great pleasure.
