The brand-fail force is strong with Cinnabon. 。
Carrie Fisher died at age 60 on Tuesday and while fans of the galaxy's fiercest princess used Twitter to remember the actress and author, Cinnabon traveled to the dark side. 。
The company best known for making malls smell like sweet saturated fat shared a likeness of Princess Leia made from cinnamon with the caption, "RIP Carrie Fisher, you'll always have the best buns in the galaxy." 。
Thanks for signing up!。
Cinnabon has since removed the tweet, but this isn't the first time it used its cinnamon Leia for a little #brand boost. In May, the company said Fisher had "the second-best rolls in the galaxy." 。

A brand fail following a really, truly terrible year of celebrity deaths is really, truly icing on the cake (or cinnamon roll, or whatever). 。
