I'm a beginner baker and these croissants were a bit challenging to make. But I'm so glad I tried them! They were absolutely delicious.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my croissants came out dry and crumbly. I think I may have over-baked them.

These croissants are the best I've ever had! The dough is so light and flaky, and the almond filling is divine.

These croissants were a little too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of almonds, so I substituted Nutella for the almond filling. It was amazing!

I had a hard time finding almond paste, but I was able to make my own using this recipe: [link]. It worked out great!

These croissants were not as flaky as I expected. I think I may have over-kneaded the dough.
