National Croissant Day for the year 2024 is celebrated/observed on Monday, January 30th. There are until the next observance.

While most of us associate croissants with France, they originally originated in Austria under the name “kipferls.” When Marie Antoinette married into the royal family and requested the simple cake in the crescent form of her hometown, she first brought the Austrian dessert to France. The croissant originated when French bakers produced nicer versions of “kipferls.” The croissant has gotten increasingly refined in France, influenced by the country’s cuisine style. At its most basic, it is a low-cost breakfast pastry prepared with pΓ’te feuilletΓ©e (soft flour made with flour, yeast, butter, milk, and salt). The 30th of January is National Croissant Day, so bring out your inner Parisian baker and say “oui” to these buttery pastries!
