Adding the orange juice and zest to these rolls just brings out the lovely sweetness of the raspberries. The soft yet fluffy roll with the yummy raspberry filling is like a bite of heaven.

Top with a little cream cheese frosting and bang you definitely can’t resist these little guys, even me who is 99% of the time a vegan had to try a little bite! My family absolutely loved these little rolls, even the hubster who is supposed to be on a diet couldn’t resist either.

Now I’ve not tried this on this specific recipe, however if you are vegan, use non dairy milk in the dough and it works just as well, as I use this same dough for my vegan friendly cinnamon rolls which is a blog post I really need to get going on.

If you did want to go very indulgent you could always drizzle on a little white chocolate, or even better dip them into a chocolate fondue! I’m hoping some one will try it and let me know how well it works.
