A new trend in gastronomy
Gastronomy always surprises us with innovations that delight our palates. In recent months, a new trend has emerged that has conquered baking lovers: the ‘Croissant Flat’. These flat croissants have caused a sensation in major cities around the world, including Spain. Many bakeries have left traditional croissants behind to offer this exquisite variant.
A unique version of the classic croissant
‘Croissant Flat’ are a flattened version of the classic French croissant. Unlike the traditional croissant, which has a curved, fluffy shape, these croissants are flatter and resemble a sheet of laminated dough. Although they maintain the same flavor and texture that is crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside, their appearance is what makes them unique. This variant emerged in California, where bakers sought to offer a more practical and easy-to-eat version of the classic croissant. From South Korea, they also joined this trend thanks to international influencers who showed it on their social networks. Thus was born the passion for ‘Croissant Flat’.
The trend that conquers social networks
In the age of Instagram and other social media, how food looks can be as important as how it tastes. The ‘Croissant Flat’ have an attractive and different presentation, which makes them the protagonist of numerous photos and videos that flood our networks. These publications have generated thousands of likes and comments, helping to further popularize this gastronomic trend.
Where to enjoy the ‘Croissant Flat’ in Spain
