"For years, Twisted Croissant made the most exciting laminated pastries in the Portland area, selling croissants of almost every variation and colorful chouquettes. But what makes this bakery special is its cruffin, a hybrid pastry made by twisting croissant dough into a muffin. Twisted Croissant switches up fillings and flavors for options like raspberry rose cruffins, baklava variations, and more. Twisted Croissant maintains brick-and-mortar locations on Northeast Broadway, Sellwood, and Slabtown; the pastries are also available for purchase at various farmers markets on weekends." - Michelle Lopez, Janey Wong
