A new sweet trend in Alcalá de Henares
The world of pastry is always evolving, and Alcalá de Henares is no exception. In this historic city, famous for being the home of the renowned writer Miguel de Cervantes, a new gastronomic phenomenon has emerged that is capturing the attention of both locals and visitors: the ‘flat croissant’.
This innovative treat, which deviates from the traditional French croissant, is characterised by its flattened shape and variety of toppings. The pastry shop Pastry Shop, located at Calle Fausto Elhuyar, 6, has become the ideal place to enjoy this delicious creation. With over three hundred positive reviews on Google, customers highlight the quality and originality of its products.
At Pastry Shop, each bite promises to be a unique experience. According to its owners, each ‘flat croissant’ is made with selected ingredients and a special touch that turns it into an unforgettable gourmet moment. The bakery not only offers this innovative version of the classic French treat; it also boasts a wide range of products such as cakes, cookies, and donuts that complement its offerings.
The popularity of the ‘flat croissant’ has grown so much that it is already being compared to other culinary trends seen in iconic places like Hungry Club, founded by the famous chef Dabiz Muñoz. However, what sets Pastry Shop apart is its artisanal approach and the passion they put into each of their products.
Not only sweet lovers will find something to enjoy here. Pastry Shop also offers savoury breakfasts with toast and pancakes that attract those looking to start their day with energy. Variety is key; every customer can find something that suits their preferences.
Even though the International Croissant Day (celebrated on January 30) has already passed, this does not stop enthusiasts of this delicacy from continuing to explore new forms and flavours. The culinary proposal presented by Pastry Shop invites everyone to rediscover this classic in a new light.
If you find yourself in Alcalá de Henares or plan to visit soon, you cannot miss the opportunity to try these ‘flat croissants’. The perfect combination of tradition and innovation makes each visit memorable. Whether to enjoy alone or share with friends and family, this place promises to satisfy even the most discerning palates.
