Bakers let the good times croll

AS IF there weren’t enough over-priced breakfast goodies to choose from, a new hybrid between a croissant and roll has emerged.

The ‘croll’ (croissant-roll) follows hot on the heels of bakery hybrid fads the ‘cronut’ (croissant-doughnut) and dagel (doughtnut-bagel). The croll apparently combines the buttery taste and texture of a croissant while maintaining the structural integrity of a roll. They’re on sale at Asda at £1 for two.
