6 Awesome Lawson Roll Cakes
Lawson's original Premium Roll Cakes are almost as much a symbol of the combini chain as its blue-and-white logo. How good are they? They've won awards at the Monde Selection, an international food and beverage competition in Europe—that's how good they are! Check out the regular and frozen selection below, and look out for special flavors!
