My wife & I went to Paris last year for ten days. Paris is truly amazing. A foodie paradise! Once you've been to a Boulangerie' and eaten every type of pastry, you're a seasoned Parisian. We plan to go back later this year. I can't wait!

My 7 and 9 year old daughters have been making meals on their own to surprise me and when I ask them where they get the recipes, the answers are always the same --- "Natasha's kitchen of course Mom! Cause she's the best!"❤ We always know where to look for a reliable recipe!

Thank you for the recipe!.I made it dairy free, and they are delicious 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤

I used to stop at a bakery and get croissants and they topped them off with butter and a light sprinkle of parmesan. They were really good. I buy store bought ones but I have got to make this recipe, it looks so good and I love this channel. I add my own little pizzazz to it. Before I roll it up I add cheese, country gravy, bacon, and scrambled eggs to it. After I roll it up I add butter and instead of parmesan I sprinkle it with everything bagel seasoning. so good. 😋

I have always been intimidated by the ‘croissant’ but you have explained it so well and shown me how to make it that I may attempt to make some.
Thank you for sharing your wonderful recipes, techniques and showing how fun cooking can be!!

I forgot how good you are as a teacher and how interesting and easy you make things look! I really want to thank you so much for this video.

I’ve always wanted to make croissants from scratch but the techniques I have seen in YouTube and many cookbooks make it look so difficult and complicated that I have almost quit until now. You changed all of that. It is really an amazing video and I love all the special effects.

I really love croissants and Paris and all of France. I was raised in Europe long time ago and remember the delicious food, wine and the good life.

Best wishes and warm greetings from Puerto Rico!

Dear Natasha, I’d like to thank you for your efforts in explaining and showing the complicated dishes, you make a great work. I made croissants for the first time at the first try and they became awesome! Crispy, multilayered and really tasty. Thank you, and appreciate your efforts ❤

You have the patience of a saint lol I don't think I would have the patients to make fresh croissants, feom scratch. Especially if I have to wait that long and do all that work, But I am definitely a croissant girl, but I'll just get them at the bakery 🤪 although it was fun watching you make them 😋

[missisfreddiemercury]

This is so great and you make it look so easy. I have to try it.
