The French croissant is usually credited to a couple of Austrian migrants - August Zang and Ernest Schwartzer, who opened a bakery in Paris in the 1830s.
It wasn't until the early 20th century that the French baker Sylvain Claudius Goy created a recipe using puff pastry instead, laminated with butter to create layers - and this is how modern day croissants are made.
