A cinnamon bun that bears a striking likeness to late Catholic nun Mother Teresa has been stolen from a shop in Nashville /AP

The owner of the Bongo Java coffee shop arrived to find that the famous pastry had been taken from the shop in Nashville, Tennessee.

The "Nun Bun" was preserved and put in a glass case at the shop, where it was discovered by a customer in 1996 reports BBC online.

The shop sold T-shirts, prayer cards and mugs with the bun's image until Mother Teresa wrote a letter asking the sales be stopped, before her death in 1997.

Mr Bernstein said the thief "went right for the bun. Unfortunately I think it's somebody who wanted to take it to destroy it."
