Rise and Shine on Christmas

Imagine waking up on Christmas morning to the smell of freshly baked croissants wafting into your room, getting up and enjoying the buttery, melt in your mouth taste, still warm from the oven. Heaven?

If you’re lucky enough to have a Christmas morning croissant tradition in your house, you’ll know how hard it is to keep the croissants fresh. Nowhere is open for fresh croissants on Christmas morning, and who wants to be rushing around to bakeries late on Christmas Eve?

Paneton has that problem solved with its Ready-to-Rise Croissants. These buttery beauties come raw and frozen – just take them out of the freezer to rise overnight, then bake them in the morning for delicious, freshly baked croissants – still warm!

Better yet, Paneton doesn’t make your usual sub-standard freezer products. All of its pastries are made with traditional French recipes and real New Zealand butter for a croissant so delicious you’d serve it to Santa himself.

Dominique Colombie, co-owner of Paneton, grew up in a patisserie in south-west France – immersed in the art of pastry making from birth. Paneton’s mouth-watering morsels are still made with the traditional French recipes that Dominique learned from his father, and brought to New Zealand.

Today, Paneton is thriving by continuing to combine the best traditional French baking with quality New Zealand ingredients.

The Paneton Ready-to-Rise range includes Croissants and (for an extra special treat) Pain au Chocolat – both of which come in Petits and Grands size.
