Ice Cream
Warm croissant meets cold ice cream! We guarantee you, the contrast in temperature will tickle your taste buds.
To make, cut that croissant at the centre and top one half with a scoop of your favourite ice cream flavour. Cover it with the top half and enjoy. It will be messy, but oh so worth it.

Peanut Butter and Jam
PB&J already tastes incredibly delicious with the basic white bread, just imagine it with a buttery, flaky pastry? Give your classic American filling a glow-up by pairing it with an Austrian-French bread.
To make, spread a layer of peanut butter and jam in the middle of your croissant after baking. Use the residual heat for five minutes to warm the peanut butter jam mixture into a gooey irresistible filling. Eat whilst still warm!

Pumpkin Pie
It’s the quintessential fall filling! A simple pumpkin pie filling infused with autumn spices is all your croissant needs to make it more exciting.
To make, puree pumpkin with nutmeg and cinnamon. Spread the filling on a triangular dough and roll that thing up to make a crescent pastry. Pop it in the oven and wait for 10 to 15 minutes.

Berries And Cream
Think Danish here and fill your croissant with your favourite fresh berries. If you want them to be sweeter, drizzle some honey on top. Pop it in the oven and bake.
Then, fill your croissants with pastry cream using a piping bag fitted with a small tip.

Vegan Brie and jam in a croissant? It’s that irresistible combo of sweet, salty, and creamy that we can’t get enough of!
To make, spread a layer of jam and cheese on your croissant after baking. Bake for a further 5 minutes just until you see that cheese ooze out of the pastry.

VLT Savoury Croissant

Garlic and Cheese
How did we not think of this before?! Cheese on a croissant is already fantastic as is, but add some garlic and butter to that and you get an explosion of flavours!
So here’s how you do it: sauté some chopped garlic for 3 to 5 minutes. Then slather some butter on that pastry.
Next, sprinkle the sautéed garlic on top of the butter. Then add some mozzarella cheese and parsley, then bake as per instructions. Stunning.
