In the world of modern pastry making, the croissant is not only a timeless classic, it is also a symbol of quality, reliability, and production capacity. But how does a perfect croissant, capable of retaining all its fragrance and goodness even after freezing, come to life?
Today, we take you behind the scenes of our production process to show you how, every day, we transform select raw materials into frozen semi-finished products, ready to meet the needs of pastry chefs, baristas, and other professionals in the industry.
It all starts with the raw material: quality comes first.
The recipe for a perfect croissant starts with the choice of ingredients. We use only the highest-quality raw materials such as butter and margarine, flours selected from certified mills, and flavorings to ensure a fragrant and natural result.
Each ingredient is selected not only for its flavor, but also to ensure optimal freezing performance, without compromising its organoleptic properties. Our goal is to offer a product that, once baked, is indistinguishable from a homemade croissant.
The production process: craftsmanship and technology
Once kneaded, our croissants are processed using lamination techniques that respect the traditional puff pastry process. Leavening takes place in temperature-controlled rooms to ensure a uniform volume and a honeycomb structure.
Thanks to state-of-the-art machinery, we can replicate the pastry chef’s skills on a large scale, making balance, consistency, and precision part of the production process, without sacrificing the care typical of artisanal production.
Freezing: an ally of freshness
Contrary to what you might think, freezing does not penalize the product: on the contrary, it preserves it. We use rapid freezing techniques that inhibit bacterial growth and maintain its fragrance, flavor, and texture.
Easy regeneration, excellent yield
One of our main goals is to simplify the professional’s work. Our oven-ready croissants, for example, can be regenerated quickly and easily, with clear instructions on cooking times and temperatures.
The result? A fragrant product with a clean flavor, smelling of butter and winning over the end customer from the first bite. And with constant monitoring of the weight and oven yield, we guarantee predictable margins and zero waste for those working behind the counter.
Designed for those who work, loved by those who taste
Whether you’re a barista with limited time or a pastry chef looking for a perfect base to customize, our croissants are designed to simplify your daily work without compromising on quality.
An Igloo croissant isn’t just good: it’s reliable, quick to prepare, and delivers consistent results. Just what breakfast professionals expect.
If you’re curious to see how we make our products, here’s a video that takes us directly into the lab, where we can see a production process that’s only partially automated and relies on the support and expertise of our pastry chefs.
