The ones with the al foil tray are like that, these sometime are still warm from the oven. At least at my local store.
Some stores bake their own stuff, some stores get it delivered frozen. Will probably all be frozen soon though to save $$$.
Half off?
Yes
Sometimes these are great, other times you end up with 10 dry husks of pastry. Best of luck
I find the Woolies ones to be the worst. Costco ones are fresh, then Coles are ok as well at times.
Yea you get what you pay for, Costco is $12 for 12, but they good
Costco ones are at least twice the size of the Woolies ones and taste much better, so definitely worth the extra money IMHO, especially when they are reduced to $9 (not very often though).
Coles are decent in the oven. I believe they dropped the price to $9 (instead of $10)
I wouldn't buy the Woolies one.
Never in stock in all my surrounding stores
Always in stock in all my surrounding area until 50% off. Then, they go walkabout until the offer is over.
used to be good…light and fluffy and flakey, now just like semi sweet bread with some flakiness on the outside
Made in …. baked in Australia
Funny if it was an ingredient pack…

On another note, I’ve just started making my own with sourdough and they are, well, amazing. Like I had in France.
What are delivery costs to WA?
Post the receipe. Thanks
How long does it take to make them? I used to make sourdough bread which takes 2 days. My understanding is that croissant takes about the same if not more effort.

If you want to take them up a level this is the recipe for the Almond frangipani from Lune.
I can't stand sweet croissants, it's blasphemy. Butter or bust
Maybe you should try ham and Gruyère as an option.
@try2bhelpful: Never heard of that cheese, but I'm interested. Will have to see where I can get it, is it available at Colesworths?
@try2bhelpful: Shouldn't heat up gruyere. Just buy the Swiss cheese from Woolies or Aldi. Best for burgers too.
i love the frozen ones from coles. they are actually made in france.
20-22min in the oven on a Saturday morning….mmmmmYeah, these aren't large, it's false advertising. The Coles ones are twice the size
Come to think of it, they aren't even as large at the ones they sell in the foll tray. You can normally get a 3 pack of bigger ones, or a 4 pack of a bit smaller ones, and these "large" ones are smaller than the 4 pack ones. I don't know who's working this out at Woolies but someone needs to inform the ACCC
The 3 and 4 packs are always good. The 9 pack or whatever it is just tastes bland and horrible. So.. What's this?
This usually comes in a large plastic bag, so guess it's the bland and horrible ones.
We used to buy them but not any more. The Coles ones at $9 for a dozen are much better than these!
These are rubbish. The Coles ones in the big cardboard tray are miles better.
That's correct. Don't understand the negs
I was going to say something very similar. This was a good deal a few years back when they were sold on a tray but now they are half the size and chucked in a plastic bag.
I don't bother anymore.Absolutely correct. I can never find the Woolworths ones in a box tray, like on the pic. They are always (when available) in a plastic bag, all deformed. No thanks. Coles is our pick - really good quality for the price.
These are rank.
Save your money.
Every time I see this post I can expect to see people tell you how bad they taste etc.
And they're not wrong
Agreed. Thanks! saved me from typing.
Note to most Aussies. For the love of all things French please remember the 't" in croissant is SILENT. Just like MorTgage. You're welcome.
PS: These are pretty terrible. Eat less frequently but get some half decent ones from pastry shop.Bit more to pronouncing the word correctly in French than just a silent T.
yeah I know… didn't want to go into nuances. It's a start as you can't expect the average non french speaker to nail that
Nah I'll stick with the silent "I" instead.
IMO compared to the Coles 12 pcs box these are quite small.
As mentioned previously, in Perth anyway, these are unobtainium when the offer is on.
For the size, $4.50 should be the rrp
My local store always put all 10 in a small plastic bag…. so most of them are being press / smash
Frozen then thrawed
