The spiral-shaped, blueberry-dotted sweet rolls at Mon Petit Chéri Bakery & Cafe are the ultimate in portable a.m. fare because baker Emily Rheingans understands the intrinsic appeal behind moist, rich, yeasted dough. She saves the best for last, liberally spreading an orange-flecked glaze over the top of each golden roll. 2401 E. Franklin Av., Mpls.; 612-236-4831; mpcbakery.com
