Ecstasy and agony....!


This was without doubt the most delicious chocolate croissant I've EVER eaten (well outside of  Paris anyway!), and believe me I have had a few.  You can see the choccy oozing from the middle of the warm pastry, well worth the time I'll have to spend on the cross trainer to ensure that it doesn't settle permanently on my nether regions haha!!  On Thursday we went to Fremantle, there was a particular shot that I wanted to get, which I didn't, but I did get a few others that I 'm pretty pleased with (like yesterday's post). This luscious croissant was from The Fremantle Bakehouse one of the many cafes along the Cappuccino Strip on South Terrace, it was worth the trip for this alone! I do hope you experience something delicious in your day today.....!!

  1. Oh, so cruel! I am watching my food intake (again!...sigh)...so yummy chocolate croissants are not in my immediate future...but I loved the photo of it anyway! Have a great day today! It is rainy here...and definitely colder than it was earlier!

  3. My dear Grace,

    This is simply not fair. I mean, please, my mouth is watering, my brain has quit working, and all I can think about is chocolate!

    I think I'm going to have to take a long walk, read a big book, watch a really exciting movie to see if I can get past this!

    Sheesh! You sure know how to get to a guy! :-))

    It's lovely. Good for you. And thanks for the very nice photos...and we've moved our blogs back to Blogger 'cause it seems easier for everyone involved!

    Thanks for you support!

  4. That has to be the largest croissant I have ever seen and probably the most chocolaty one too!
    I read on one of the blogs that CDP did indeed get hacked but that they were hoping to be back up some time this weekend. Fingers crossed.

  23. Will have to talk to you about my favorite bakery one day. Kapitanis bakery, in Larnaca, Cyprus. Average weight of a chocolate croissant is 800 grams, nearly 2 pounds.

  24. That looks delicious! A quite appropriate paraphrase of Irving Stone's title...
