Exciting news! Vandemoortele USA officially launched our newest pastry product: a freezer-to-oven pinched croissant.
The première took place in North America at the 2023 National Restaurant Association Show. Our brand new pinched croissant has been developed in response to market demand and customer requests.
The Pinched Croissant Bake’Up® by Banquet d’Or® is designed as a customisable and versatile carrier, providing a canvas for your favourite savoury or sweet sandwich fillings.
No. 1 croissant recipe
“The Bake’Up process we’re using for this new product is truly remarkable in its ability to quickly provide the same quality and freshly baked product as a skilled baker or pastry chef could produce with many more hours of labour. This is a gamechanger for customers looking for high quality products with significant time and cost savings,” says Master Baker Johan Coppens, culinary advisor at Vandemoortele since 1987.
High quality and generously proofed to reduce the amount of filling needed; the pinched croissant is an ideal product for a deli or bakery lunch spot or for making grab-and-go breakfast sandwiches. Additionally, the Bake’Up by Banquet d’Or®Curved All Butter Croissant, using the same recipe as the pinched croissant, ranked No. 1 against competitors in recent consumer testing.
