DESSERT: Croissants
|
|
|
Croissants, though famously French, actually trace their roots to Vienna, Austria! Their ancestor is the kipferl, a crescent-shaped pastry that dates back to at least the 13th century. Legend says Viennese bakers created it to celebrate the defeat of the Ottoman Turks — the crescent shape imitating the symbol on the Ottoman flag.

They’re simple, elegant, and wonderfully old‑fashioned, the sort of cookie you make when you want the kitchen to feel soft and inviting. Perfect for gifting, sharing, or enjoying with a cup of tea, they bring a little sweetness to even the calmest winter afternoon.
