Val-d'Oise: where can you find the best 2024 butter croissant in the department?

It's a pastry so often found on the breakfast table. Thanks to its flaky pastry, the croissant has conquered the taste buds of many a gourmet. Although there are many legends surrounding its creation, the term " croissant " first appeared in a dictionary in 1863! Since then, the croissant has continued to delight the palate, to the point of being France's favorite Viennese pastry.

Every year, competitions are organized around this indestructible pastry. After discovering the best butter croissants in Paris and the Yvelines, now it's time for the prize for the best butter croissant 2024 in Val-d'Oise!
