A New Pastry Phenomenon Captivates Food Lovers and Social Media
This summer, a circular, crème-filled croissant called the Suprême is taking New York City and social media by storm. Similar to the iconic Cronut introduced by Dominique Ansel in 2013, the Suprême has drawn crowds to Lafayette Grand Café & Bakery since its debut in April.
The pastry has quickly become a viral sensation on platforms like TikTok and Instagram, with customers eagerly documenting their experiences as they rip into the flaky layers, revealing a delicious ganache that oozes from within.
Scott Cioe, the executive pastry chef at the bakery, expressed surprise at the unexpected popularity of his creation, remarking, “I don’t even have a TikTok.”
As the Suprême continues to captivate both taste buds and social media feeds, it solidifies its place as a must-try treat for food enthusiasts in NYC.
