Absolutely! If you want an easy version that’s close to as good, you can cut store bought puff pastry into triangles, spread jam on them, then roll them into crescents and bake. It’s what I do since I’ve gone vegan, since they’re otherwise full of cow butter, and I recommend.
The origin sure, as much as bread’s origin is in wheat. Croissant as you know it is French, from Paris specifically. Not that I condone them having some kind of veto on how people get to use this invention now.
No, the shape and most of the composition. The French are just entitled enough to pretend it is theirs. Western European nations seem to like doing this.
What you are talking about is kipferl which is definitely Austrian. But someone took that and made it into something new using yeast-leavened laminated dough, called it croissant, and where they did that was 100% in Paris, France. There is no doubt about it because it happened recently enough. They are absolutely not the same end product and I would be outraged if someone served me half-moon shaped bread roll, which is what the Austrian thing is, while trying to pass it off as a croissant.
Who gives a fuck what the French think? The origins of the croissant are Austrian.
Hello. I’m Austrian. I approve of mango croissants. We have apricot ones, so why not this.
I bet the apricot ones are amazing

There’s plenty innovative croissant shops in paris too. Bet the threats they received were from “French” Americans.
Or just people with French names who were just being asshats on twitter
Or no one at all.
classic viennoiserie
