Ever since the introduction of Cronut by a French pastry chef in New York, the world went all crazy mode!
And because Montreal is part of the world (no, really?), we have been infected as well!
And a mysterious force of curiosity has pushed me to pay a visit at La Cornetteria at 10 am on a Saturday, after being warned that they sell out the cronuts very early during the day.
Here they are. The precious little things.
We were asked if we wanted the mysterious flavor. I asked them what flavor is it and only to be answered with “it’s a surprise!”
Worst surprise ever. It doesn’t taste as good as their regular cronuts, which has custard cream pipped inside.
Here’s the picture to see the croissant like doughnut.
The verdict?
Is it worth 4$? No. This is outrageous how expensive these cost. I really think the market is milking this trend.
Texture? It looks different giving you an impression the insides would give you croissant vibes. But no. It doesn’t. Once I bite, everything comes together like a donut, exactly like I’m eating a honey cruller donut with custard cream.
And you better eat it right away or the donuts become stale and greasy.
Maybe the New York cronut is better…
