"Albeit an amusing offering, Trader Joe's Mini Croissants are a diminutive disappointment from start to finish. Per Tasting Table's assessment, the eight-pack of frozen, ready-to-bake pastries were uninspired both in terms of taste and texture. With no familiar flakiness like that of a homemade croissant recipe, these small and overly bread-y pastry items simply aren't a good choice for anyone wanting to start their day off on the right foot."
"In fact, this current iteration is Trader Joe's attempted revision after previous customer complaints, particularly about having to spend time proofing the croissants prior to baking. However, as one Reddit user points out, "These are really disappointing [compared to] the ones TJ used to carry," so it seems as if there are some conflicting opinions as to which version was best."
Trader Joe's Mini Croissants are small, overly bread-y pastries that lack the flaky texture of homemade croissants. The eight-pack frozen, ready-to-bake items received criticism for uninspired taste and texture. The product is a revised version intended to address prior complaints about proofing time, but opinions vary and some consumers prefer earlier versions. The Rustic Apple Tarte is suggested as a superior frozen pastry option from the same store, offering shareable portions and robust flavor. Other convenient store-bought croissants and frozen pastries are available for shoppers seeking better alternatives.
