It’s a pie baked into a cake. Millions of combinations possible - everybody gets their favorite. Or keep it simple. Everybody wins. The confectioner’s version of turducken.

That’s too much. It’s like if Ferrari made a Porsche fighter that looked like an Aventador. Just too much.

I can’t speak for this (I know it as cherpumple, and I’ve never tasted it) but I had a cronut at LAX once and it changed my life. This can only be better, right?

Shouldn’t there be cookies inside the pies?

But how do you retain the hard crust if you drown it in cake batter?

Is a cronut a croissant with a donut in it?

It’s kind of a donut made of sweet croissant? It’s flaky and layery and sort of crispier on the outside but meltier in the middle. Really, really rich.

I never had a real cronut from NYC, but Dunkin Donuts has their own version which is pretty good. Prob not as good as the original tho..

In my world pie = cake. Therefore, I see this as a win-win proposition.

Agreed. I’d stick to the single layer myself.

This one wasn’t a name brand cronut but it was from some snobby equivalent bakery. I had food vouchers from American and was determined to spend them. I’m going to have to look for the Dunkin ones though!
