My DD has a hankering for croissants. I don't want to spend and arm and a leg. Any suggestions? |
Williams-Sonoma
https://www.williams-sonoma.com/products/croissant/?pkey=ccroissants-bread-pastries I think the frozen croissants at Trader Joe's are just as good, however you'd have to go into the store to get them. |
The Trader Joe's ones are a hit at our house. There are two flavors that I'm aware of: almond and chocolate. I'm not sure if there is also a plain one.
You just put them on a baking sheet, leave them out overnight, and put them in the oven in the morning. They rise beautifully, taste delicious, and cost less than $5 for a box of 4. It really could not be easier! |
Love the ones from Williams Sonoma and they aren't that expensive compared to getting one at a bakery. |
Granted TJ doesn't do delivery, but I think Postmates could get you door to door delivery service if that was really a priority. |
Tatte Bakery DC - can get them delivered on doordash. Really delicious (and get other delicious things while you're doing it!) |
Ohhhhh am looking them up now |
You could get them at Whole Foods as well. We like their unbaked ones and bake them on weekends. Easily delivered along with other groceries. |
I've been missing these too. Just ordered some from Gaston's Bakery through Sur La Table. They are better than TJs, but way more expensive. I did get a $15 discount but had to pay for shipping so it was more or less a wash. They come in chocolate and butter. |
Fresh Direct has them too. And pain au chocolat. Frozen. |
Fresh Direct (frozen) oven ready butter croissants are very good. We’re in Manhattan, though - not sure if Fresh Direct is available on the DMV? |
Amazon fresh or Whole Foods... anywhere that sells food |
Whole Foods delivery croissants have been good in the pandemic. |
Where do you live? Patisserie Manuel in silver spring is amazing. Pickup or delivery depending how close you live. |
