English term or phrase: Danish roll
Jeg er lidt i tvivl om, begrebet generelt dækker wienerbrød, eller om det er begrænset til f.eks. (kanel-)snegle mv.

wienerbrød


Explanation:
Se referencen, som har billeder af forskellige former for Danish rolls, hvoraf de fleste ikke ligner noget, jeg forbinder med dansk bagværk. De har det til det til fælles, at de har en eller anden form for fyld - et par stykker af dem med synligt fyld som i en spandauer.

agree  Paul Cohen: Nice link. Det er helt rigtigt, sirius! It is a very general term for baked goods, at least in the United States (where I come from).

danish roll
rundstykke


Explanation:
A Danish roll is a bread roll eaten at a Danish breakfast. In its traditional form it is round, crusty with poppy seeds on top. Then it is 'rundstykke'.
Shaped as a croissant we call it 'horn' and rolled,but oblong makes it 'giffel' ..and now there are lots of other varieties !
Wienerbrød is Danish pastry .. and they again come in different shapes and forms and .. could be 'sneg' or 'kanelsnegl'.

agree  Pernille Chapman: Yes, if we're talking UK English. But surely the context will suggest whether the word refers to pastry or (plain) bread?
