Sausage Bread Rolls

The first time I came across sausage Bread rolls was at the Aiport on my last trip outside the United States, and I was wowed. When I returned, I did not hesitate to recreate it. It is such an easy recipe and the result was outstanding.

The texture and flavor of this bread were absolutely delicious. It turned out exactly as I had hoped. Not only do they taste good, but they also look beautiful. I have made this countless times now because my family is hooked!

These bread rolls are an excellent addition to the family menu especially if you like the art of bread making – as I do. You can check 22 Bread Recipes For The Foodie In You for amazing bread recipes.

Can I freeze these Rolls?

This sausage bread can be made in bulk because it freezes so well. If you choose to freeze them, be sure to let the rolls to come to room temperature. Put them in a Ziploc or tightly sealed plastic bag and store them in the freezer. You need to let them thaw before warming them.

You can place them in the oven to warm up or microwave for a minute or two.

Other bread recipes you might want to try:

Notes:

  1. Try to leave some spaces at both ends of the sausage while wrapping it because the dough will still rise up and cover the left out space a little bit
  2. I like to steam or grill the sausage links before I wrap them around the dough because I want it to be thoroughly cooked.
  3. Mixers can also be used for mixing the dough, this saves time and energy
  4. Be sure to measure accurately. You can see both the standard and the metric measurements below
  5. Bring all your ingredients to room temperature bere combining them. Except for the milk – that needs to be warm.
  6. When making bread, always use bowls that are large enough to accommodate the size of the dough when it doubled or tripled in size.
  7. These bread rolls are perfect for breakfast, dinner, or even snack time and it will definitely create a memorable taste for you and your family.

Ingredients

  • 2 Cups Bread flour plus about a handful for kneading
  • 2 Tbsp. Butter Melted
  • 1/2 Tbsp. Yeast
  • 2 Egg use 1 for egg wash
  • 1/2 Tsp. Salt
  • 1/2 Cup Milk Warm
  • 3 Tbsp. Sugar Use 1 Tsp for proofing the Yeast
  • 10 Hotdog links

Instructions

  • Dissolve the yeast and sugar in the warm milk
  • In another bowl, combine the butter and eggs and set aside
  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, and sugar, make a well at the center and add the yeast and the Egg and Butter mixture and mix together until a soft dough is formed.
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead until it’s smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes by hand and about 7 minutes if using a mixer.
  • Place the Dough inside a very large oiled bowl (making sure you smear some oil on the surface of the Dough) and leave to rise in a warm place for 1 hour or till doubled in size.
  • Steam the sausage in boiling water for about 7 minutes. Remove from water and set aside.
  • Deflate the dough, and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into 10 equal pieces, and roll it out into a rope long enough to wrap around the sausage about 3 times.
  • Wrap the rolled dough around the sausage and place them on lightly greased and floured baking sheets at least 2 inches apart. Cover the rolls with a damp cloth, and let rise until doubled in volume, about 30 minutes.
  • Whisk up 1 Egg and together with a Tbsp of water and brush the surface of the Bread rolls then place in a 350 degrees Fahrenheit preheated oven and bake for 10 to 15 minutes or till golden brown. Enjoy

  1. Hi Lola, I’ve made your meat rolls several times now and they are fabulous! I’ve made it with scrambled eggs and ham. Also delicious. Next time I want to do it with sausage gravy, but light on the gravy. Thank you for the recipe!

    1. That sounds absolutely delicious, Melody. We’re so happy you’ve enjoyed the meat rolls and even experimented with different fillings. The sausage gravy version sounds amazing too; we’d love to hear how it turns out. Thank you so much for making the recipe part of your kitchen ❤️

  2. From all of the reviews I’m excited to try this recipe for my family for Christmas breakfast!! Can I make these on Christmas Eve and put them in the refrigerator after they are wrapped and rise for 30 minutes and just bake them in the morning? It would be so much easier doing the night before!

  3. I’ve been making this recipe regularly for years; it is a long-time favorite in our house. I make it exactly as written except I use 6 footlong hot dogs instead of 10 regular hot dogs.

    So it’s embarrassing that I’m asking after all this time: Is it 1 egg for the dough and 1 egg for the egg wash, or 2 eggs for the dough and 1 egg for the egg wash?

    I’ve always put just 1 egg in the dough, and the moisture is spot on, so I’m pretty sure that is correct, but I’m suddenly wondering if I’ve been missing out on something by only using 1.

    Regardless, thank you for a great recipe!

    1. No question is embarrassing here Curtis, I used one egg in the dough and another one for the egg wash. You were right all along!! Glad you love the recipe 🙂

  4. Absolutely delicious! Made them in the evening so that we could take them with on a hiking trip. They “bread” surrounding the sausage was Devine!
    Will definitely make them again, think they could go nice as lunch for school.

  5. Hi Chef Lola. I came across this recipe in 2020 and have been making it since. My family loves it! ❤️ Thank you so much for sharing such an easy recipe

    1. Hi Sidratul, it’s good to hear that the recipe has become a part of your household favorites. Your kind words mean a lot. Keep enjoying your cooking adventures! 😊

  6. Hi,

    In your recipe for the sausage rolls, when you state ‘2 Egg use 1 for egg wash’, does it mean 3 eggs in all?

  7. I am reading this right—2 eggs go into the dough and then I need an additional egg for the egg wash? Trying this recipe tonight!! So excited!!

    1. Heather, you need one egg for the dough and one egg for the egg wash. You don’t need an additional one.

  8. I made these for just two people and just guessed some of the measurement changes. Plus I didn’t let them rise as long. And I substituted almond milk. With all that, they still came out wonderfully. Thank you so much. Lola! P.S. To the person who doesn’t have an oven…I have baked small breads like this in a Dutch oven on a stovetop before. Putting them on a rack or the Dutch oven on a trivet will make sure they don’t burn. It will take some experimenting with temperature for sure, but it’s possible!

    1. @Chef Lola’s Kitchen, please I don’t understand the way you said the dough should be in a large deep oil and cover till surface

      1. Let the dough be completely deep in the oil. The oil should cover the dough completely so that both sides can fry at the same time.

  9. hi lola! i’ve made this today and i loved it! the bread is sooo soft! i was thinking of using the recipe to make burger buns, it is possible right? 🤔 anyways thanks so much for sharing your recipe. may God bless you always x

    1. Wow! I am happy it came out perfect for you, Jo Ann. Thank you for the lovely feedback.❤

  10. Followed step by step and I’m so happy with the results. Although my sausages were shorter

  11. I’m so embarrassed!
    I just found your Youtube Channel!
    I am going to start them now!!

    Thanks again,
    Scott

    1. You don’t need to be embarrassed, Jeffery. I know you will find the videos helpful. Ensure you make as many recipes as possible and enjoy them. I will be expecting your feedback.

  12. These are THE BEST SAUSAGE ROLLS EVER!!!
    I’ve made them a few times and can’t wait to make all your other recipes!
    Do you do videos on Youtube?

    Thank you, Chef Lola!
    Scott

    1. Thank you, Jeffery. Enjoy the process. I am earnestly looking forward to your feedback when you try them.😂

  13. This was amazing! Just wondering tho if the dough in this recipe can be made as the garlic knot? I know you have that recipe too but we loved the softness of this bread.

  14. LOLA LOLA LOLA!!!! Thank you for this delicious recipe! I make 20 at a time and freeze them. My sons can then grab them, pop them in the microwave for 1 minute and they have breakfast or a quick snack! Thank you again from Beautiful Barbados!

  15. My dear I love all your recipes,they are so easy to follow thank you for taking out time to do what you are doing, concerning the sausage rolls bread can I use magerine in place of butter?

  16. Midnight baking. Slightly increased the ingredients to serve breakfast. This recipe is very accurate, my work came out well. Thumbs up

  17. Hello. I made mine Using your recipe. At first the dough didn’t double the size after almost 2 hours which frightened me. But it increased so I continued. I forgot to leave to rose after has wrapped the sausage. But regardless it came out really lovely like yours

  18. This recipe has became a favorite. I’ve made it with both 10 hot-dog-sized sausages and 10 regular-size hot dogs, but usually I make 6 footlong hot dogs. The amount of dough is perfect for that.

  19. Thank you so much for the recipe Chef Lola!!👍👍🤝
    Made it this morning following your recipe step by step. turned out so well & whole family enjoyed it for breakfast.
    i made another batch in the evening but this time round, the dough didn’t rise much, I suspect it could be the higher temperature of the milk. `

  20. Hello! Are you using active dry yeast or instant ? Or doesn’t matter ? I have instant so just trying to see if the time frsme will work the same for as mentioned in recipe. Thanks !!

  21. Thank you. Chef Lola
    I had try your recipe very yummy.
    The sausage rolls taste very yummy and textures are very soft..so good

  22. Dear Chef Lola,
    Amazing recipe. Made this today and my family managed to leave 2 rolls for me 😅.
    Can I double all the ingredients in the recipe to make a double batch or what would be your advice to double the recipe.
    Thank you and pls keep the amazing recipes coming.

  23. This reminded me of my days in Tanzania when Mum was with us. This was her favorite… and we loved them. I share then today with friends with stories of old… Thank you Chef Lola.

  24. Thank you for sharing this recipe, Chef Lola! Have been trying different internet hotdog bread roll recipes for a long time in the hope of finding one similar to what I had from an obscure small japanese bakery that I stumbled upon in one of my NY trips. My search is finally over.

    1. @Lola Osinkolu, Same thing, this is the first time I got a dough recipe and the outcome was splendid. Thank you.

  25. Thanks for the great recipe! My family loves the bread. But can I know what should I change in the recipe if I use instant yeast?

  26. These are exactly like the ones I get at my local Asian market. So good…I love them. Your recipe was easy. Thanks

  27. Thank you so much for this recipe! I’ve made this once before, and they turned out perfectly! I want to make this for a party; would I be able to double this recipe without a problem, or do I need to make two separate batches?

  28. I can’t thank you enough for sharing this wonderful recipe. This is so so so good! Because my sausage links are smaller than yours, i managed to get 12 rolls. My family loved them, finished them in a blink. Definitely will make this again, thank you!

  29. Thank you for this wonderful recipe! Instead of hand kneading I made this in my bread machine. They came out perfect. I’m now making my third batch! I freeze them so my sons can grab and go! Thank you again!

  30. I make pastries but have never tried this before, my sister called me from office and said her pregnant colleague is craving pigs- in -the -blanket and I remembered you have it on your blog.
    Long story short I followed your recipes and they loved it and even ordered more again.
    Thank you ma’am

  31. Thank you Chef Lola. I did it! The sausage bread rolls came out perfect. My family loved them. Cheers, Elly
    (P/s: please advise how I can share the photo. Thanks)

    1. Thank you for the feedback, Elly. I’m glad your family loved them. You can send me the pictures on Facebook or Instagram @ cheflolaskitchen I will be happy to see the pictures. 🙂

  32. This is the second time that I made these, the first time they turned out perfect but this time my dough is stiffer. I kneaded it for 10 minutes and kept checking for elasticity but its not like the first batch I made. After it has risen for an hour can I knead it again and try to get it where it needs to be and let it rise again or should I start over. I don’t want them to taste like regular bread.

    1. From what you explained, my best guess is that there was too much flour during the mixing/kneading process or the bread rose at a cool temperature. I don’t think kneading it a second time will help.

  33. Hi Lola,
    I tried the recipe but i cant kneed the dough till smooth and elastic.
    Not sure whats went wrong. I kneed so long still not smooth with mixer.
    Any clue or idea whats went wrong?

    My measurement as below:
    250g Bread flour
    30ml Butter Melted
    7.5g Yeast
    2 Egg use 1 for egg wash
    1/2 Teaspoon Salt
    63ml Milk Warm

    When mix with dry ingredients with the wet ingredients it seems dry, so i put little bit of water till can form dough.
    In video looks so wet.

    Does it means my wets ingredients too little?

    1. Make sure you use 2 eggs in the bread. Get another egg for the egg wash. So total, you use 3 eggs.

  34. I already tried your Sausage Bread Roll and it was so delicious. Thank you for sharing your recipe 😊

  35. I just tried them out and THEY ARE AMAZING
    The rolls came out soft and fluffy! And they were even tasty on its own!
    This recipe is a keeper thank you so much!

  36. Great and I’m waiting for the proofing now🥰🥰hope my kids will love it when they woke up and see few trays of freshly bake sausage bun rolls

  37. Dearest Lola,
    Giving credit where credit is due; “Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all”. I have made this twice and both times it was a great success, you make me bake like a pro. Thank you for your generosity in sharing your recipes with us. I am baking your sweet milk bread recipe, I am looking forward to eating it. In as much as my husband does not want us going out, na lie, something must give as I must make either the goat pepper soup or the ata dindin. Thank you so much, may God continue to bless you, your home, your family and the works of your hand, amen.

  38. I just made mine now, it is so so delicious, mouth watering. I have to prepare another batch cos my hubby and his children finished the 20 8 made at once.
    Thanks greatly for this ma. I always look forward for your post all the time and my family has been enjoying themselves a lot.

  39. Amazing recipe! 1st time trying & got it right. The measurement given is definitely accurate. The buns were fluffy & yummy!! Thank you for sharing your wonderful recipe.

  40. Hello Lola. Thank you for all your amazing recipes. I will like to know if I can do all the kneading and mixing in a stand mixer? Also will a self-rising flour work for this recipe? Is it also possible to skip the butter and flour in a pan and use parchment paper instead? Thank you

  41. I tried this awesome recipe and I didn’t even take a single picture because they were too yummy to resist. I dare you to take a picture when they’re done 😭

  42. I prefer your recipe and your detailed directions compared to the sausage rolls published by rasa malaysia. Thank you

  43. I prefer your recipe and your directions compared to the sausage rolls published by rasa malaysia. Thank you

  44. I made these today and they came out browner than yours but still lovely. Thanks a lot for sharing.

  45. Dearest Lola
    Thank you for sharing these lovely recipes n good ideas
    Yummy n delicious

  46. 4 words: gone in 5 minutes. This was amazing! I’ll have to double batch it next time since my husband ate most of it! Your recipes do not disappoint.

  47. Thank you so much for a delicious recipe. The whole family ate these so fast that I am planning on making a triple batch today.
    Thanks again from Sydney, Australia

  48. Hi Lola, this recipe is awesome. I’ve tried a few and this is indeed the best! The bread is soft and airy, and the sweetness is just right. Everyone just can’t stop at one 😊 thank you 👍🏻👍🏻

    1. Hi Chef Lola
      Can I let the dough rest overnight. Next morning only shape it and bake it.
      No matter whether is No knead bread or the
      hot dog rolls.
      Please advise.
      Thanks.
      Christine

  49. I tried out this recipe today and my rolls were just perfect. Your recipe was simple and very easy to follow and the end result was beautiful and delicious rolls.
    All the 10 rolls were finished within minutes.
    Thank you Lola.

  50. I just tried this receipe today. I must say it was perfect. Don’t worry if your dough gets little sticky coz mine was and i kept kneading using the flour and it came out perfect and bun was so soft and so good. Highly recommend this recipe to anyone

  51. Hello Chef Lola,

    Thank you so much for the savoury pastries and dishes you post. They are so enticing and inviting.

    I really want to try this bread rolls but I am worried about the measurements. My 1cup says 235ml so 2 for this bread rolls should be 470ml. My 1 teaspoon says 5ml and 1 tablespoon says 20ml. I just want to confirm if they are same as yours.
    Also, if I’m measuring 1cup, should it be a levelled 1cup?
    Would you be kind enough to post a picture of the 1cup of flour you mean.
    Expecting a response at your convenience.
    Many thanks

  52. Hi Chef Lola I tried this roll today and honestly I was impressed by the outcome my kids loved it the only thing was the bottom was Bit burnt I did the butter and the flour coating so am not sure why that happened.Thank you for being so detailed
    P.s this is my first time baking anything

  53. Hi Chef Lola. This recipe is amazing. I’ve made it twice for my family, and they really enjoyed it. I also want to know if this can be done with all purpose flour.

  54. Thanks for the recipes but need to know if tha calories count you put is per one or for the whole recipe??

  55. This is an awesome recipe, I love the part where you boil the sausages in water. I’ll try it soon. Thank you

  56. Hi chef Lola I tried this recipe today and it turned out great the whole family loved it most especially the kids

  57. Hi chef Lola, this is really good. I would like to bake more! Do I just need to double all the ingredients to bake more or that’s not a good idea. I have big family and it wasn’t enough for them. 🙂

  58. Hi Chef Lola
    thank you for this wonderful recipe.
    As everybody is confined in their home trying to find something to cook, this recipe was a 5 stars for my kids.

  59. Great recipe and great outcome, did this with my kids, tastes delicious and looks just like the picture.bkeep it up

    1. Thank you Lola for the detailed explanation of your recipes. I also like the fact that you use measurement that doesn’t require conversion, making the whole process a breeze. I am hooked to your channel. Lots of love from Nigeria ❤

  60. I’ve been wondering what the name of this pastry is for at least 2 years. Now I finally know. It’s like the less complex little brother to Hotdogs.

    1. Thanks for the recipe, I used exact same measurements but my dough was a bit dryer not as soft as yours in the video, what did I do wrong?

  61. hi Lola. you are a great teacher, I love your teaching so well. please I would like to know what a warm milk is and how to get it. is it the same with the normal daily milk we us at home?

  62. Hi from India! I tried your recipe for sausage rolls, and I am mind-blown! These are perfect, soft and such a wonderful texture overall. The taste made me really nostalgic about my childhood, we used to visit a bakery near my school and dad always got me these wonderful warm sausage rolls. I’ve tried several recipes and failed to recreate that taste. Your recipe has given me that exact same taste as those rolls in my childhood memory, thank you so much for this! Keep up the great work! Also, I’ve been trying to leave a five star rating on your recipe but somehow the rating doesn’t seem to be working, but I’d give this a 10 star if I could! 🙂

  63. Hi chef lola i was amazed .it turns out yummy fluffy my children love it can i request a measurement for more batches i was alittle bit worried that the amount will not turns out the same.thank you for sharing.

  64. These are wonderfully moreish!! After they’re baked and cooled, can the twirly hot dogs be frozen and reheated? If yes, how are they reheated? It would be one less thing to do in preparation for ‘Thanksgiving’ if they can be baked in adavance. Thank you in anticipation of your timely advice. Donna

  65. Thank you so much Chef Lola…I”ve tried out this recipe twice and it came out tasting so nice both times…however, the surface doesn’t come out as smooth as yours…the moment I use the egg wash on them, they start to slacken and open up and the dough eventually comes out looking rough…please what could be the problem? Thank you…God bless you.

  66. Got the answers!! Watched the video. Great recipe. .Was good even after 2 days in the refrigerator. Thanks so much!!

  67. Hi Lola, great recipe. I tried it yesterday and used all purpose flour instead of bread flour. I had to use nearly a cup more as the dough was really wet. I added an extra bit of yeast to compensate for the excess flour. Also used olive oil instead of butter. I used 2 eggs in the dough and 1 for the egg wash. Did I use an extra egg? Is that why the dough turned out wet? Anyway. It did turn out great inspite of all the adjustments.

  68. Hi chef, I made this during my last semester break. Now on a session break, can’t wait to do it again.
    It’s such a nice recipe!😍

  69. Well detailed and explained. Please i am looking forward to your version of genache recipe soonest. Weldone!

  70. I made these exactly per the recipe and the dough was super dense and tough. Almost biscuity. I know there are a lot of variables…weather, etc. Not sure what went wrong. Thank you though. I’ll try again.

    1. I’m sorry to hear that Tiffany. Most people tend to get this recipe at once. I really can’t say what must have gone wrong but my best guess will be the measurement. You can try to use the metric measurement in your next attempt. I hope that will help.

  71. Hi chef Lola, i want to ask what type of sausage link did you used, there is alot of them here and am a little confuse on which one to used. I also want to know if o can used instant yeast for it? Thanks. Will be waiting for your reply

  72. I made this today and it came out just awesome. I love your cooking site. I would be trying other recepies . Thank you.

  73. Thanks for the recipe, i tried just now and it came out good. I find it easy to make. It was my wards favorite so i will surely make again. (By the way i use oven fermentation since the weather is quite cold).

  74. Chef Lola, I have been looking for a recipe like this but using a heartier smoked sausage. I tried it with lightly grilled smoked sausage and managed to duplicate the ones my husband and I used to enjoy from a Polish grocery. PERFECTION!!! Appreciative husband, happy wife 😊! Thank-you so very much!

  75. Chimoooo wawu 😍👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻..The recipe issa bomb came out exquisite.Already feeling like a chef..Chef Lola for president ooo,.Thanks so so much ..Adding to my small chops menu🤗

  76. Hi chef Lola. May I know how long the sausage bread rolls can last and what is the mode of storage?
    Thanks as I expect your response.

  77. Hi Lola, i tried this recipe yesterday and it came out perfect! I cut the recipe in half because i didn’t need much. It was a little consuming because of the time allowed to let the dough rise otherwise, it was very easy. Thank you very much. I will definitely be trying your other recipes. I subscribed too 🙂

  78. Hi Lola! Ive just watched your video and This looks wonderful! Ive been looking for this recipe as my husband loves it. Just a few questions.
    Have you tried using plain flour and would it still be soft?
    With your tablespoon size, is it a 15 ml or 20ml tablespoon?
    If the weather is quite cold, would it be better to leave the dough to rise in a warmer place (Ive heard some people put it in the oven)
    Thanks!
    Can’t wait to try it

    1. Yes, plain flour will work as well and it will still be soft. If the weather is cold then try to put the dough in a very warm place or simply preheat your oven to 180°F for 5 minutes, turn it off and place the dough inside the warm oven to rise… 1 tbsp is 15 ml. I hope that helps? I will be happy to know the outcome.

      1. Hi Lola,
        Thanks for your reply. I did end up using bread flour and the bread was soft. But when it was cool, it wasn’t soft anymore. Do you think I need to knead more? Thanks!

        1. Hi Alia, if you are kneading with your hands (without the machine) then you might knead a little longer in order for the gluten structure to be well developed. Again you can try to use the metric measurement for this recipe to help you achieve a more accurate measurement. You can click on that in the recipe box. I wish you more success in your next attempt.

          1. Hi Lola! Thanks for your reply! I tried making it again (2nd attempt) and I used my mixer to knead it for me this time and it came out well, nice and soft! Thank you!
            However, I tried it again (3rd attempt) after that using the mixer and when I let it rest for the second time (after twirling the dough around the sausage), the dough rose and ripped apart, I’m not really sure how to describe it but the dough rose and ‘tore apart’ a bit like The Hulk when the muscles are getting big and the clothes start to tear? Hehe. Sorry, not sure how best to describe it. What do you think ai did wrong this time? Hope to hear from you soon. Thanks

            1. I think i figured it out. I over kneaded the dough. I thought the more the better. Guess i was wrong

      2. Oh I forgot to mention, I had to add more flour when kneading cause the dough was very sticky. Could this be because I used XL size egg?

  79. Hi Lola, greetings from UAE. I tried this recipe and it’s a super hit in the family. Keep posting some more bread recipes with stuffings if possible. Thank you so much.

  80. Can this dough be refrigerated over night? I was wondering if it is ok to refrigerate over night, thaw and let it rise the next morning, if it would turn out the same? Thank you! It’s a great recipe!

    1. Thanks, Keetah, Yes you can refrigerate the dough right after kneading before it rises, oil the dough lightly, cover with plastic wrap or use a ziplock, and place in the refrigerator. Happy baking!

  81. I hv been following ur recipes and they turn out excellent, I tried ur sausage rolls as well as dinner rolls and they are hit in my home .

  82. I’ve just open your website and am well impressed, thanks Lola. I surely alert you about the outcome of my makes.

  83. Am a big fan love watching your videos on youtube. I have always wanted to make this sausage hot dog though several attempts didn’t come out nice, I was so happy when I saw this, I will definitely try it n get back with a picture of it. Tnx

  84. One cup is how many grams where you live because here in Canada, 1 cup is approx 140 grams. So 500 grams as you mentioned, here will be approx 4 cups. That quantity with just 1/2 of water , something not seem to be right cause the dough is quite hard. My dough is not easy to work with as seen on your video. My standing mixer is working very hard amd hot when mixing the dough. Thanks a lot

    1. Hi Kelsey, I apologize this is coming quite late. Sorry for the stress you had to go through. That’s quite a lot of work for the mixer…I use the standard American measuring cup for all my measurements and 1 Cup of flour here is 125g … The recipe calls for 2 cups (250g), not 4 cups (500g) except you are trying to double the recipe and in that case, the liquid quantity will have to be doubled as well as the other ingredients too.

  85. Yummy recipe. My family enjoyed it and I am gonna bake quiet often. Thank you so much for explaining it in a simple way.

  86. I want to learn more with you on line.but do you have a branch here in kaduna state if yes were can I find you
