  1. The buttery, flaky crescent you eat for breakfast is not as French as you think.

    The story goes back to Austria, where the kipferl (a crescent-shaped pastry) was made centuries before the modern croissant.

    So how did it become a French symbol?

    In the 19th century, Austrian baker August Zang opened a Viennese bakery in Paris, helping popularize Viennese-style pastries. French bakers eventually enhanced the concept, using laminated yeast dough and lots of butter to create the light, flaky pastry we know today.

    🇦🇹 Austria gave it an early ancestor.
    🇫🇷 France made it famous.
    🥐 The rest is delicious history.
