The Cronut (croissant and doughnut) is a pastry created and trademarked in 2013 by the French pastry chef Dominique Ansel. It resembles a doughnut but lighter due to the croissant-like dough filled with flavored cream. One of the bakeries in my town specializes in cronuts and thanks to them, I have been able to try a variety of their delicious cronuts. Have you ever heard of or eaten this delectable pastry?
