Croissant
Croissant
Croissant is a delicious, buttery, flaky pastry that originated in France. It is typically crescent-shaped and made with layers of dough that are folded and rolled to create a light and airy texture. Croissants are often enjoyed as a breakfast or snack and can be plain or filled with various sweet or savory fillings. They are best enjoyed fresh from the oven with a cup of coffee or tea.
