Can we get a pic after a bite? I really want to see the buttery inside for some reason 🤤

AccordingtoJP OP t1_is8rnd0 wrote

Unfortunately not, I ate it extremely rapidly. It was like a flakey hollowed out croissant with a crispy red sugar creme brûléed on top, then pecans and this pecan cream in the middle

🥲 I believe you, I just feel that seeing the inside would be super satisfying. I also understand that it disappeared quickly, it looks very tasty

Where did this come from and would their express ship it? (I'm in Minnesota, U.S.)

AccordingtoJP OP t1_is8ue17 wrote

It’s from the packing district in Anaheim. Here is the link to it on their site: https://anaheim.parfaitparis.com/product/fall-leaf/450?cs=true&cst=custom

Edit: it’s from Parfait Paris in the packing district (like a big fancy food court) in Anaheim

Thank you! It is so far away I think I would need a bulk order for shipping. I love a maple pecan, I love a croissant... I think I could make one! (I'm buying refrigerator style dough though.) I can candy pecans, and my 88 year old great aunt gives me a tiny jar of home tapped syrup every year! My Granny and Grandad and Aunt Eiliene boil it down... I used to go too. I know how to in Northern Minnesota!

paradisepunchbowl t1_isahdii wrote

It’s a not-recognized-by-science “condition” that seems to spread by awareness. A mild discomfort when viewing images of physical bodies with a certain hole pattern.

Basically a meme illness.

Oh I’m sorry, I’m trying to start a conversation by asking YOUR experience with trypophobia. Google only says so much about you specifically. All I could find was your job and address, and how many dudes have fucked your mom. It had nothing about your fears on the Wikipedia article. Sorry about that, next time I’ll hire a private investigator.

Tyralyon t1_is9j8o0 wrote

Looks tasty, but is it really a croissant? Totally different shape and filled with pecans. A pain au chocolat uses the same pastry as a croissant, but it's not called a chocolate croissant.

37

ColdBorchst t1_isa5vu9 wrote

Most places around me call them chocolate croissants because a lot of people don't know what a pain au chocolat is and if you translate it to chocolate bread it doesn't sound as good. It's a croissant, who cares. I know the name is about the shape but I mean really it's not a big deal for it to come to mean that specific type of bread even when square or leaf shaped.

9

Shhhhhhhh_Im_At_Work t1_isaj848 wrote

Like the other commenters have said, a lot of American places will call pain au Chocolat a chocolate croissant, even if it's not crescent shaped.

It may be wrong, but when a dish jumps to another country the related history and etymology may not make it intact. Heck, is American Chinese food Chinese? What about American pizza? We put BBQ sauce, bacon, chicken, and ranch sauce on some of our "pizzas", good luck finding that in Italy.

EDIT: Not to mention here in the States, 95% of people will order a "cruh-sont", not a "kwa-sanh".

AccordingtoJP OP t1_isan2ik wrote

I'm not sure to be honest. The website describes it as a Fall Leaf made with a croissant dough, filled with pecan pastry cream, roasted pecan and glazed with a maple syrup. Open for interpretation I'd say

esoteric_enigma t1_isahd1c wrote

I've seen plenty of places that sell "chocolate croissants."

Tyralyon t1_isak9ff wrote

I'm not saying chocolate croissants don't exist, but they are usually shaped like croissants, not like a pain au chocolat (or at least they shouldn't be).

AlfaBetaZulu t1_is8uxeo wrote

I can't even imagine the work somebody put into this. Regular Croissant's are already a pretty involved pastry. This is art. 👍

moonflower_C16H17N3O t1_is9u9ok wrote

Close. I thought instead of an apple it was some horribly infected flesh.

taggospreme t1_is9y8qg wrote

it reminds me of an eschar or some kind of open necrotic cyst. The surrounding redness just enhances that!

Never heard of an eschar before but I know for certain that I should not look it up.

How to we define croissant? Is it a shape or the consistency? Is this a croissant or a maple leaf shaped puff pastry?

Both. A crescent moon shape with the right dough.

Really beautiful, probably really tasty, but can you please remove the "croissant" from the name ? 7 french passed out since you posted it.

I just imagine they would put the trimmings in a loose arrangement and bake them as a shop treat.

I’ll ask my roommate she just got a job there and brought back a big box of leftover pastries from the day. This was part of the spoils

By I’m so happy for you to get some spoils. Idk what they would reuse, but I’m guessing that someone is cooking up some of the cuttings. Too good to waste.

Important question. What do they do with the leftover cutter scraps? All those thousands of buttery layers going unbaked and uneaten?? 🤯
