The best ingredients

This delicious item contains three ingredients: sourdough, patiently left to rise for 60 hours, to give it a natural flavour. High quality churned butter, from Italian cream, giving a fresh, mild flavour. And eggs from free-range hens. The resulting pastry can be filled with whatever you wish.

The origins of flavour

The origins of flavour

Called croissant in France and brioche in Northern Italy, in Central and Southern Italy it's called a cornetto. It's a traditional patisserie speciality, more flavoursome than the kipferl it's evolved from, and it has a crescent moon shape...or two little horns.

Meticulous production processes

The starter used to make these croissants takes its time to get going (and the pastry chefs need to be very patient)! It takes sixty hours to rise. And the result is a light, honeycombed dough. Which is what makes them as delicious as butter that melts in the mouth. And their wonderful flavour is also down to the eggs from free-range hens.

Meticulous production processes

Flavour watchers

Traditionally croissants are made either with sugar grains on top or without. Some prefer their sweetness above, others inside: they can be filled with jam, crème patissière, pistachio or hazelnut. And some like them plain.
