A cinnamon bun that bears a striking likeness to Mother Teresa has gone missing from the coffeehouse where it was displayed.
The owner, Bob Bernstein, arrived to find an early Christmas morning break-in and the world-famous pastry gone.
Bernstein said he believes that the culprit is someone angry over the shop displaying the Nun Bun, which has been preserved with shellac. A jar of money next to it was not stolen.
"They went right for the bun," he said. "Unfortunately I think it's somebody who wanted to take it to destroy it."
The Nun Bun gained worldwide attention in 1996 when a Bongo Java customer nearly took a bite of it before recognising the revered nun in the folds of flaky pastry.

It was yummy.
What is the deal with all the apparitions in bakery items? The world sure has its 'unique' individuals. Eat the damn pastry and move on!
The bun looks a bit older. And the mouth is different.
;-)
I guess I don't look at my pastry close enough. I may have taken a bite of Jessica Simpson yesterday afternoon and not known it. :)
Hmm sacrilicious! 
maybe they were hungry and did not realize it was the FAMOUS NUN BUN.
probably someone thinking with their tummy and not their head.
(Homer Simpson)...lol
Whoever took it must be real flaky ;)
D**n! It was stale!
Forbidden donut...
