I was very excited to find these in Asda, but they had already sold out of the Pains an Chocolat, so I grabbed the Croissants eagerly.
As I left Asda I suddenly realised I had no jam at home but thought "oh well" and continued on my way.
When I got ready to try the Croissants I opened the packet and immediately thought that they looked a bit small.
Nevertheless I popped them in the oven for 10 minutes to be "refreshed" as it instructed on the back of the pack.
The smell was amazing and I could not wait to open the oven and dig in.
It was not love at first bite, seemed a bit dry (and very hot, was very impatient) so I decided to let it sit a while before I continued.
The pastry is good, not as soft and buttery as your standard croissant, but a close try for a GF alternative. I decided that I definitely need some jam when I buy them again.
The Pains au Chocolat was a perfect treat to find when I went back to Asda, with only 2 on the shelf I knew I couldn't leave it behind.
These looked and felt like what I was use to before being GF so I had high expectations when I opened the pack and popped one in the oven.
Again the smell filled the kitchen and I literally couldn't wait for the 10 minutes to be over.
The first bite was amazing, warm pastry and chocolate, not too sweet, yum!
However, it could do with a bit more chocolate for the amount of pastry, but defo a treat that will be purchased again!
