Taylor Swift’s cinnamon rolls for Travis Kelce have surprising connection to his mom’s ‘go-to’ holiday tradition
Taylor Swift and Donna Kelce seem to have more in common than just Travis Kelce.
The NFL star’s mother’s most prized holiday dish is cinnamon rolls, which his singer girlfriend has made for him.
“I bake cinnamon rolls. They’re always my favorite, my go-to,” Donna, 71, told Us Weekly, explaining that she “can only do it a couple times a year” because it’s “so sugary.”
She went on to add that although she’s “not a good cook,” she “love[s] to bake” for her loved ones.
Perhaps she and Swift, 34, can swap recipes.
Bernie Kosar recently dished on the pop star’s baking skills, revealing on the “Tobin and Leroy” show that he was charmed to see Swift at Travis’ Missouri mansion when the retired quarterback popped in for a meal before the Sept. 24 game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Chicago Bears.
“Taylor is so nice,” Kosar, 60, shared. “She comes in by herself, she’s so cool, she brings … she made her homemade cinnamon rolls for Travis for a pregame meal.”
The former NFL star added that although he’s “trying to be vegan and gluten-free,” he couldn’t resist sampling some of the Grammy winner’s homemade goods.
Swift posted a photo of her gooey pastries via Instagram in May 2020, cheekily captioning the mouthwatering snap, “When you’re proud of your buns so you post them on the internet.”
It’s possible Travis, 34, will get another taste of the “Anti-Hero” hitmaker’s sweet treats on Christmas Day and/or New Year’s Eve.
As Page Six exclusively reported, the couple will be spending both holidays together in the tight end’s city.
As for Taylor’s relationship with Donna, the latter gushed to WSJ. Magazine last month about how smitten her son was.
“I can tell you this,” she teased. “He’s happier than I’ve seen him in a long time … God bless him. He shot for the stars!”
Donna, a 71-year-old cinnamon roll enthusiast, revealed to Us Weekly that despite her age, she still loves indulging in baking her favorite treats.
She confessed that while she can only muster up the energy to bake a couple of times a year due to the sugary nature of her beloved cinnamon rolls, it’s a labor of love she reserves for her loved ones.
In a delightful twist, it seems Donna might have found a baking buddy in none other than Taylor Swift, as revealed by Bernie Kosar, who shared a charming anecdote about the pop star’s homemade cinnamon rolls.
Kosar, impressed by Swift’s warmth and generosity, recounted how she whipped up her gooey pastries for a pregame meal at Travis’ Missouri mansion.
Despite his dietary restrictions, Kosar couldn’t resist indulging in Swift’s delectable treats, showcasing the universal appeal of her baking prowess.
Swift herself playfully showcased her culinary skills on Instagram in 2020, sharing a tantalizing snapshot of her cinnamon rolls with a cheeky caption.
With Christmas and New Year’s Eve on the horizon, it’s likely that Travis will once again be treated to Swift’s sweet creations, as the couple plans to spend the holidays together in his city, as reported by Page Six.
Donna, thrilled with her son’s relationship with Swift, couldn’t help but gush about how happy he seems, emphasizing how Taylor has brought a newfound joy into his life. Indeed, it seems that love and cinnamon rolls are the perfect recipe for happiness in Travis’ world.
