What's the middest of all pastries and why is it pain au chocolat
>>20430622real butter crooissant dough is never mid tier, so your experiences must be low end mass produced versions
>>20430638I've been to some of the best bakeries in Europe so I doubt that
>>20430622The dough is always a worse denser version of the croissant, probably because they have to shape and handle it more and the chocolate is never good enough to offset that.
>>20430712>The dough is always a worse denser version of the croissant, probably because they have to shape and handle it moreliterally, it is the same, thus we now know you had shitty versions
>>20430622There’s a monastery near me where nunz make bread and croissants like that. The bread is a lace of flour and butter, and filled with chocoate? idk what the hell you want anon, try heroin.
>>20430714It's not the same they have to handle it more because there is 2 lines of chocolate in there. You're getting really defensive for no reason I'm clearly not OP. I'm not even talking to you.
>>20430712lol
I'd rather take a mid pastry than a shitty one. Fuck sfogliatelle. They fucking blow.
I think I agree OP. The undisputed master is the Almond Croissant however.
>>20430719>>20430638>>20430622>>20430712Maybe anon should try Kouign Amann
>>20430643I doubt that you’ve been to some of the best bakeries in Europe
>>20430952makes no difference to me
>>20430723>2 more fold or whatever.Like it makes any meaningful difference and you burger can tell or care. Get a better fuck obsession you dork.

unironically donuts

>>20430764This
>>20431096You just got ones from a shitty place.When they're caramelized on the outside and juicy and mushy on the inside, they're delicious.
The king and it's not even close
>>20430622CHOCOLATE PAIN
>>20431116Cannoli are disgusting about you ought to be ashamed.
>>20431167Agreed
mid af fr sheesh
>>20430622>blows donkey dick in your path
>>20431167>>20431169nice samefagging.
>>20431376Incorrect. I posted >>20431167 and >>20430764, tho. I'm from Italy and think most of our sweets are awful.
>>20431389Raffaello, Ferrero Rocher, and Kinder are delicious anon. Stop self hating humiliation ritual.
>>20431376Try again, you stupid faggot
>>20431376Woah how did you know?
I love pain au chocolat. Maybe it's because I don't like things that are overly sweet.
>>20431512Yes, those are good. Our factory made stuff is great. But things from proper bakeries tend to just be awful and either dry as a nun's cunt, overly fucking sweet or absolutely sopping with rum.>>20431714lol
>>20431739you don't like panettone?sure there is stuff to better but don't throw the baby out with the bathwater
>>20430638OP is American so really, don't be surprised.re: won't let me post without an image wtf
>>20431078How would a donut not be a pastry
>>20431116truth. they are always underwhelming, the king of meh
>>20430622only an American would post this. Or a complete retard. Anyways anyone living in any of the areas where this type of breakfast pastry is and has been a staple for over a 100 years probably would know that alongside the croissant and maybe the raisin danish you will find this in any store. Therefore it is a victim of it's own popularity. If you get one from a half decent bakery it is a top rated pastry and everyone knows this no discussion. Who would even think of making a thread like this. it is quite nonsensical and useless like OP's brain I would think.Also who else here loves the ones that have cream filling? >>20431116Oh wow I wish cannoli was more common where I live. >>20432728>re: won't let me post without an image wtfVery strange. Anyways how common is picrel in your area? This is a staple where I live but I never see it discussed much on /ck/ it is like a raisin danish kind of but different shape with cream inside and glazing on top.
>>20430622Cannoli and baklavaIts good once , then never again.
>>20430764What the fuck dude? Sfogliatelle rules, "lobster tails" suck though
>>20432728>>20432968I am. Or American and you are wrong
>>20432968>Proef maar, ze zijn heerlijk.
>>20430622
>>20433038>cannoliYes>baklavaTastelet
>>20432141>you don't like panettone?I can manage it once a year. Colomba Is better, imo.Weirdly, it's the chunks of dried fruit I don't like about panettone which is weird because I like panforte and panpepato which are literally just the fruit chunks and no bready cake.>>20433254>"lobster tails" suckI'm not sure what you mean. I can guess: is that an American style sfogliatella?
>>20430770>nobody likes the almond croissant>always more for meThe filling freaks people out. I worked in a place that sold them and an old man tried to return it because he thought it was raw dough. At the end of the day there was usually some left behind because they weren't as popular, so I would always take it home.
These were hyped up so much to me, but it's very disappointing.
>>20433782Sfogliatelle have the traditional ricotta filling maybe with some citron. Lobster tails are usually bigger and filled with some generic whipped cream that tastes way less substantial. A lot of bakeries might cheap out and just do lobster tails.
>>20434944>Sfogliatelle have the traditional ricotta fillingThat's only one version, though admittedly the most common, it seems. In my part of the country, due to heavy French culinary influence, they're filled with pastry creme/custard. I still don't like them but I prefer pastry creme to ricotta in all applications, another reason I don't like our sweets.And yeah, as soon as I read "lobster tail" I figured it's because they kinda look like lobster tails which is why I guess it was American style.
>>20432968i thought this was a ham and cheese pastry for a second and now i'm disappointed
>>20431047conchas are dry and mild because you're meant to dunk them in hot chocolate
>>20430622american thread?
>>20436343
>>20431516>PoodroidGood morning sir
>>20430643Yeah I went to magnolia bakery too
>>20430622pain au chocolate is fucking amazing. it's the perfect middle ground of sweetness.
