So I went to Croissant D'or Bakery this morning. Unfortunately one of their machines is down. But I still managed to grab a mixed dozen of a selection of croissants that were still fresh.

The verdict: The pastry was flaky, buttery, with a slight crispness to the texture. You can taste the slight sweetness added into the pastry itself along with the butter.
The fruit filled ones were a massive hit with the family. Fresh fruity jamminess along with the sweet buttery tones of the pastry filled your palette with each bite.
The Chocolate rolls werent too bad. But the chocolate to pastry ration was off. Meaning you ended your chocolate decadence in a single bite if you werent careful.
Even the plain butter croissants were incredible on their own. They were all large in size, all were still slightly warm and the consistency with each croissant was evident with every bite.
To me, this is one of the best ways you can start a Monday.
