Croissants can be enhanced with various sweet and savory ingredients, making them versatile for meals beyond breakfast.
Crown Maple's introduction of Brown Butter-flavored maple syrup demonstrates that sometimes the most powerful moves are those grounded in consumer insight and strategic restraint.
Walmart's cupcake bouquets are pretty much exactly what the name suggests: 12 florally decorated cupcakes arranged to look like a faux bouquet. Customers can choose between a dozen white cupcakes, a dozen chocolate cupcakes, or a mixture of the two.

The step is coating blueberries with cornstarch before adding them to your mix. "Blueberries leak a lot as they bake, and that juice can mess with the crumb or make things a bit wet," Daud explains. "The cornstarch soaks up some of that moisture, so the berries stay more contained." Dredging in cornstarch gives you more control over the berries and resulting texture of your bake, as it keeps them intact and their moisture in check.
