The store opened in central Sydney's Darling Square on January 7 and has often seen wait times of up to two hours, with people prepared to queue down the block.
The signature Cinnabon is an instore backed scroll coated with the distinctive-tasting Makara cinnamon from Indonesia and topped with sweet white icing, which is best served warm from the oven.
Such has been the demand that the Sydney store's website advises customers to expect a wait of 60 to 90 minutes and warns that queues will be cut off before closing time.

Joan, who had been waiting patiently towards the back for 15 minutes, said she had come on a weekday because the lines had been 'crazy' on the weekend.
