How bad are croissants for you?

If you love croissants, you may find it difficult to include them in a diet-friendly eating plan. The popular baked good is relatively high in calories and because they are made with butter, they also provide saturated fat. But you can eat croissants and still lose weight, as long as you follow a few smart eating tips.

Why do croissants taste so good?

When it bakes, the butter melts and creates steam because butter has a good percentage of water. The steam gets trapped in the individual layers and that causes the flakiness, tender layers. Butter is melting and the dough is absorbing that melting butter, attributing to the delicious flavor of the croissant.
