Whether served as buttery buns in the morning, showcasing hearty breakfast meat and a golden egg in between, or as a lunch or dinner-time staple alongside a wonderfully flavorful meal, the airy decadence of the croissant cannot be denied! With humble beginnings as the delicious Austrian ‘kipferl’ dated all the way back to the 13th century, its’ incredible transformation into today’s croissant transpired thanks to the contributions of Boulangerie Viennoise pastry shop owner August Zang, who shaped his little delicacies into the shape of a crescent during the early 19th century, and French baker Sylvain Claudius Goy, who began cleverly incorporating yeast in 1915. We surely thank them both for their foodie expertise, and in just 4 days, the annual celebration of National Croissant Day will be here! Enjoy this warm, irresistible pastry on the 30th with a smile, and deliver kudos to your favorite client by sending them A Pastry Chef’s Dream!
