French Croissant

Cultural Context

Originating in Austria and perfected in France, the croissant is a symbol of French pastry culture. Traditionally enjoyed at breakfast, it embodies the art of lamination, where layers of dough and butter create its flaky texture. Today, croissants are enjoyed worldwide, with variations like chocolate or almond croissants becoming popular.
