The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is one of Bethesda’s best, but would it have had the staying power it does were it not for all of the mods?
You could argue most Bethesda games wouldn’t be nearly as popular if gamers couldn’t tweak and change them to their liking, whic is another reason we’re excited for The Elder Scrolls VI.
Out of all current Bethesda games it’s Fallout 4 and Skyrim that have the most-active modding community, and the latter has taken a fresh mod out of the oven that we can’t help but adore.
The Skyrim sweet roll is simply iconic. There’s just something about it that looks so utterly inviting that your character is bound to have a few to snack on at any given time. Players have baked their own real-life versions, either through their own recipe or officially-licensed cookbooks.
The My Sweet Sweetroll mod created by nt6486 puts a different spin on the tasty treat however, as it makes a giant sweet roll an optional companion.

While it doesn’t look like much at first glance, the sweet roll is an immortal follower, meaning they can’t be killed by enemies. It can be knocked down but it’ll always get back up.
According to the mod’s description its main skills include: “Archery, Block, Sneak, HeavyArmor, Alteration.” It also had the “LightFoot, Silence, Cushioned, Quickshot” perks. How an enormous sweet roll can effectively sneak around the map is beyond us, but it’s hilarious all the same.
It’ll even give you a free sweet roll once per day if you’re feeling a bit peckish, and you can even marry it if you really like sweet rolls. We’re not judging.
Once you’ve got the mod downloaded you’ll find it hanging out at the The Drunken Huntsman tavern in Whiterun, and when you interact with it you’ll be able to recruit it as a follower.
We’re going to unfortunately break the hearts of all console players now. The My Sweet Sweetroll mod is exclusive to PCs. Xbox and PlayStation users can’t download it and nt6486 said there’s no plans to port it to consoles.
PC players are the only ones who can experience its sweetness. How lucky for them.
The images on its NexusMod pages are also worth checking out if you want a quick laugh too. They showcase the massive sweet roll in a variety of different locations such as hiding behind a greybeard, perusing the items in a shop or taking a quick plunge in a river. We’re not sure how to feel about that last one, surely it’d get soggy?
Those who play Skyrim on their PC should definitely give this mod a go. It’s not going to drastically change your playthrough by any means, but it will make it funnier.
Imagine a dragon’s confused face when you emerge from the woods with an enormous sweet roll behind your back…
