Why does this look like the Canadian flag?

I can't even imagine the work somebody put into this. Regular Croissant's are already a pretty involved pastry. This is art. 👍

I just imagine they would put the trimmings in a loose arrangement and bake them as a shop treat.

While scrolling quickly it looked like a rotten apple with maggots inside to me. It took me a second glance to realize how amazing and delicious this croissant looks!

Thank you! It is so far away I think I would need a bulk order for shipping. I love a maple pecan, I love a croissant... I think I could make one! (I'm buying refrigerator style dough though.) I can candy pecans, and my 88 year old great aunt gives me a tiny jar of home tapped syrup every year! My Granny and Grandad and Aunt Eiliene boil it down... I used to go too. I know how to in Northern Minnesota!

Tyralyon t1_is9j8o0 wrote

Looks tasty, but is it really a croissant? Totally different shape and filled with pecans. A pain au chocolat uses the same pastry as a croissant, but it's not called a chocolate croissant.

The only time I’ve been to Canada I saw this exact pastry in a gas station just over the border from MN. It was run by this sweet old lady and she was like an S tier baker, loads of unique and delicious pastries just like this. I wish I could remember the shop name or where exactly it was..

Oh I’m sorry, I’m trying to start a conversation by asking YOUR experience with trypophobia. Google only says so much about you specifically. All I could find was your job and address, and how many dudes have fucked your mom. It had nothing about your fears on the Wikipedia article. Sorry about that, next time I’ll hire a private investigator.

How to we define croissant? Is it a shape or the consistency? Is this a croissant or a maple leaf shaped puff pastry?

Most places around me call them chocolate croissants because a lot of people don't know what a pain au chocolat is and if you translate it to chocolate bread it doesn't sound as good. It's a croissant, who cares. I know the name is about the shape but I mean really it's not a big deal for it to come to mean that specific type of bread even when square or leaf shaped.

Bro that’s just a Canadian donut. Is this like Canadian bacon? Where you say it’s bacon but it’s actually ham? Cause you’re saying it’s a croissant but it looks like a donut

Like the other commenters have said, a lot of American places will call pain au Chocolat a chocolate croissant, even if it's not crescent shaped.

It may be wrong, but when a dish jumps to another country the related history and etymology may not make it intact. Heck, is American Chinese food Chinese? What about American pizza? We put BBQ sauce, bacon, chicken, and ranch sauce on some of our "pizzas", good luck finding that in Italy.

EDIT: Not to mention here in the States, 95% of people will order a "cruh-sont", not a "kwa-sanh".

I'm not sure to be honest. The website describes it as a Fall Leaf made with a croissant dough, filled with pecan pastry cream, roasted pecan and glazed with a maple syrup. Open for interpretation I'd say
