a98pmalcolm Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 Hay gang. Father bought a load of Croissants today and they look pretty lush. I remember having them as a kid and they were nice, just pretty bland. Can different fillings go in them? If so what are your favourites? I wanna have some while watching Casino Royal tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Microwaved (obviously) with jam is the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Attero Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 Croissants are the best (especially with butter and jam - warmed up) but they are no where near as good as the ones I had in Spain every morning while on holiday. I crave those ones constantly. They were so jaw droppingly delicious, I nearly blew my load. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
