“This is The Croissant. Will and I went in on Sunday morning as part of our croissant crawl and for €1 each a croissant was purchased. They were warm enough that the butter was still melted in them, and had the most delicious aroma about them. A golden outside had me anticipating an excellent croissant, but I wasn’t prepared for quite how good it would be. The balance of texture was fantastic: crispy, flaky pastry which was then delectably moist on the inside without the laminating having collapsed from too much butter. However, the texture was left far behind by the flavour.”
“Throughout my entire trip, Le Moulin de Croix Nivert was the first and only bakery I had seen this rare ruby. [...] There were only 2 left! It didn’t look like they were going to re-stock it anytime soon as it was around 11am as breakfast time was almost over. [...] It had very crispy outer edges and I couldn’t wait for the first bite! CRUNCH! YES! THIS IS IT! You know it’s a good croissant when you could hear the loud crisp sound! It was also flaky! Yes, I made a mess! It coated my palate with rich, buttery goodness and sweet raspberry taste at the same time.”
