Delight Pastry’s Spiral Croissants Are From a Pioneering Persian Baker - Eater LA

"Delight Pastry’s owner and pastry chef Lily Azar and her daughter and co-owner Sarah Hashemi noticed something in late 2022. Customers kept asking about spiral croissants, the circular dipped pastry sensation that set Instagram and TikTok ablaze in 2022. One to pay attention to trends, Hashemi urged her mother to put her own spin on Lafayette’s “suprême” croissant, and Azar accepted the challenge. Azar added pistachio and rosewater spiral croissants to the display case; as an Iranian-born baker with strong roots in Tehran, she wanted to use flavors that are prominent in Persian cuisine. But Azar didn’t stop there, and added creamy fillings like raspberry, ube-coconut, passionfruit, and matcha pistachio to the three-year-old bakery’s sought-after spirals. The calculation proved to be a solid move, as the Delight Pastry display case is consistently sparse at the end of the day." - Mona Holmes
