Butter croissant pastry is split and filled with almond frangipane, then baked again and finished with flaked almonds. The filling brings a soft, moist centre and a pronounced almond flavour, while the pastry stays layered and slightly crisp at the edges. In Pret A Manger’s pastry range, it sits alongside plain croissants and other filled viennoiserie, but with more sweetness and a denser bite than an unfilled croissant. It’s sold as a bakery item for eating as is, though it can be warmed if needed.
