"As someone who isn’t keen on dessert, I was stunned after tasting the spiral croissants at Delight Pastry. Mother-daughter team Sarah Hashemi and Lily Azar operate this Pasadena bakery offering more than the trendy spiral croissants. The display case is lined with cakes, macarons, and croissants, and the product of Hashemi’s 20 years of experience baking in Iran and Europe. Her specialties are vast, but the blueberry spiral croissant is sweet joy. The pastry is slightly flattened, beautifully crispy, and dipped in a blueberry glaze. Eating the blueberry spiral or the delightful rose water croissant is only half of the experience. The rose-colored shop makes outstanding teas and coffee in a relaxing rose-colored room. —Mona Holmes, reporter" - Eater Staff
