before glazing

just a light glaze.. so its less sweet compared to the thick glaze. i think!
the glaze will harden and it will be like a crust covering the cake

verdict:

it is cinnamon roll.. of course it is manis leting! 

but i loike!! :D

the cake is soft and moist.. 

kekadang tergeget kacang.. uuu.. crunchy! 

i think i would add more nuts if i were to make it again..
