About Croissants
Croissants are flaky, buttery pastries of French origin made from layered yeast-leavened dough. The dough is layered with butter, rolled and folded several times to create the distinctive flaky texture. The result is a light, airy, and richly buttery pastry with a crispy exterior and tender interior.
