## Steps

1. Stir the fresh yeast into a bowl with the room-temperature milk. Melt the butter over low heat, cool to room temperature and pour into the milk, then whisk in the eggs.
2. Mix the sugar, vanilla sugar, salt, cinnamon, cardamom and wholemeal flour, add to the wet ingredients and stir until smooth.
3. Gradually add the plain flour and knead the dough with a mixer for 5-10 minutes. Cover the dough with a towel and leave to rise for 30 minutes. (30 min)
4. Mix the softened butter, caster sugar, muscovado sugar and cinnamon into a smooth filling for the buns.
5. Roll the dough into a large rectangle, spread with the filling, leaving the last 4 cm of one edge bare, and roll up into a log.
6. Cut the log into 1 cm thick slices and place on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Leave the buns to rise for 45 minutes. (45 min)
7. Stir the icing sugar with water until smooth to make the icing.
8. Bake in a preheated fan oven at 175°C for about 17 minutes. Cool on the tray and decorate with icing before serving. (17 min)
