In Bluffton you may read the Bluffton Icon and drink it, too. Common Grounds' house blend carries the name Bluffton Icon.

And, now in Ada, you may read the Ada Icon and eat it, too. Bluffton resident Sherry Welch, employee of Northern on Main, Ada's coffee house, holds a tray of Ada's most popular bakery item - newly named the "Ada Icon cinnamon bun."

Naming of the bun commemorates the second anniversary of the Ada Icon's existence. It launched on the Ides of March in 2012.

"We thought it would be a neat idea to identify something uniquely Ada after the Icon," said Fred Steiner, of the online website. "Northern on Main agreed and we are happy to have our name on this popular hometown bakery item."

Northern on Main, directly across from the Ohio Northern University campus, is a popluar spot for ONU students.

Welch says she starts her day at Northern on Main at 6 a.m. and one of her first projects is to get the famous cinnamon buns ready for the oven. Northern on Main opens at 7 a.m.

"I proof them longer - let them rise longer - then buns you'll find elsewhere," she said. "That's what makes the so large."

She added that she mixes up her own secret special icing for the buns. The buns vary in appearance from day to day. On Thursday some of them had sprinkles on them. "Other days," says Welch, "I might add colored icing."
