Advantages: Moist, buttery flavour. Great price

Disadvantages: One is never enough!

I love these croissants!! I have tried all Sainsbury's croissants and these are by far the best. They are currently on offer at 88p for 4, which I think is real value for money. I was drawn to the simple, unfussy packaging and the special offer price of course! I always check the ingredients in an effort to avoid additives and food containing too much salt, sugar etc. I was pleased to see a short list of wholesome ingredients including wheat flour, butter, whole pasteurised egg, sugar, yeast salt, whole milk powder and ascorbic acid. Please note however, that nutritional values stated are given per 44g and 100g of product. I can only assume that 44g grams is equivalent to 1 croissant. I hate food labelling as I am sure it is desgned to confuse and mislead the consumer! Anyway, I think each croissant contains 11.3g of fat so it is not the healthiest choice for breakfast. Nevertheless, these croissants are the flakiest, lightest, most moist and buttery you will find. I certainly had no problem in putting away 2 for breakfast! They are great heated in the oven or straight from the packet.

Summary: Great taste, great price
