Fans of the iconic Krome Avenue bakery will face new purchase limits this year as the farm aims to shorten wait times. Guests are now capped at four dozen cinnamon rolls per visit at the main cashier.
Why it matters
The change seeks to address the famously long lines that have defined the farm experience for generations. By managing bulk demand, the bakery hopes to process transactions in under an hour for the majority of visitors.
Ninety-five percent of customers purchase four dozen rolls or less, according to farm records. The business, now in its 70th season, is adding a fourth register to handle traffic alongside an online system for larger orders.
