There’s something truly magical about croissants. That first bite into a perfectly golden, impossibly flaky pastry, revealing buttery layers within – it’s an experience that transports you straight to a Parisian café. For me, this love affair began much closer to home, during my high school years. My daily ritual often involved a quick stop at Starbucks for a vanilla latte and, of course, a croissant. It was a simple luxury, a way to make my allowance stretch while still enjoying a taste of that coveted pastry.

I distinctly remember those days, carefully choosing between the familiar Starbucks offerings and the occasional, much fancier, artisanal croissants my grandmother would treat me to at a high-end pastry shop in Cherry Creek. While my grandmother’s pastries were undoubtedly superior, there was a certain satisfaction in my independent, budget-friendly choices. Deep down, though, I always longed for that exquisite, fresh-from-the-oven quality at my fingertips.
