1. Crescent-shaped & golden brown – Croissant

A croissant is a rich, buttery, flaky pastry that is instantly recognizable by its signature crescent shape. While most closely associated with French cuisine, the croissant actually traces its roots back to Austria, where it began as the kipferl. It was later introduced to France, where bakers refined the recipe and techniques, ultimately transforming it into the delicate, multi-layered pastry we know and love today.

Croissants are made with laminated dough. This involves folding butter into the dough multiple times to create thin layers. They are crispy and golden on the outside, soft and airy inside. Typically eaten for breakfast or as a snack, sometimes plain or filled with chocolate, almond paste, or ham and cheese. The name comes from the French word for “crescent.”
