Why Choose Délifrance Heritage Butter Croissants For This Recipe?

Délifrance Heritage is a premium range of products designed with a special taste and distinctive look.  These croissants (and all the products in the range) use selected ingredients such as sourdough, cane sugar and free range eggs.

The process of making them is inspired by the passion of French bakers.  The dough is gently treated, with a slow kneading and a gentle shaping process.  The result?  An exceptional crispiness and melt in the mouth texture.
