14 Fun Cinamoroll Recipes for Character Treats

I’ve always had a soft spot for Sanrio characters—they transport me right back to my childhood bedroom, plastered with stickers of Hello Kitty and her fluffy friends. Cinnamoroll, that adorable white puppy with cinnamon swirl ears and a perpetual smile, was my absolute favorite.
