8 Croissants With Butter
Flaky, light and full of flavor. The staple of any Parisian bakery, our classic croissants with butter are produced in France with an authentic soft texture and a delicious buttery taste. Individually wrapped to maintain their freshness, they’re great inside lunch boxes, for breakfast with some jelly or warmed up as an afternoon snack.
A Parisian classic for a reason that will make you say “Ooh La La!”.
