Melt 4 tablespoons of butter and pour it into a pitcher, then refrigerate for 10 minutes.

In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of white sugar, 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 2 teaspoons of orange zest.

Roll out the puff pastry from the refrigerator.

Spoon the cooled melted butter over the puff pastry.

Sprinkle the sugar mixture over the buttered puff pastry, followed by a mixture of raisins and nuts.

Starting from the short end, roll the puff pastry tightly until you have a log, seam side down.

To make sticky buns, cut the log in half, then cut each half into thirds for jumbo buns or fourths for mini buns.

Spray muffin tins with baking spray and place the cut pieces into the tins.

Optionally, cover with foil and refrigerate overnight.

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and bake for 20 to 25 minutes until puffed and golden brown.

In a small saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons of butter, then add 2 tablespoons of white sugar, 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, stirring until sticky and bubbly.

Add 2 tablespoons of fresh orange juice to the saucepan and whisk until combined.

If serving immediately, leave the sauce on the cooktop; if making ahead, transfer to a microwave-safe container and heat in the microwave for 30 seconds before serving.

After baking, let the sticky buns sit for 2 minutes before transferring to a platter and drizzling with the sticky sauce.
