New York City’s latest viral treat
(Scott Cioe, Lafayette Grand Café & Bakery Executive pastry chef)
"This is the chocolate Suprême. Right now, I'm filling it with chocolate crémeux, which is a crème anglaise based ganache. Make sure it's full. Move on to the next one. And then after this we'll glaze it and top it with cocoa nibs."
The donut-croissant hybrid has
become a hit on social media
People wait around the block

"The butteriness of the croissant. I'm very surprised. I thought that the chocolate would hit first. But the croissant is really something else. And do you ever get a chocolate croissant and you bite into it and it's kind of like, 'There's your little bite of chocolate.' This is obviously not the case. Oh my God. It's lovely."
