During our trip to New York, I really wanted to check out Union Fare Bakery which is located in the Union Fare Gastrohall. The bakery is famous for their creative croissants, with flavors like cookies n’ cream, birthday cake, red velvet and more.
Everything looked so delicious in the display case. We decided to try one of each of the croissants and a cookie as well.
Aren’t these croissants pretty?
The one with the pink-purple dusting is birthday cake. It has funfetti sprinkles baked into the dough, crushed rainbow sprinkles dusted on top, and a light mascarpone filling with sprinkles mixed in. The green one is matcha green tea. The black and white one is cookies and cream. And the glossy one is crème brûlée.
Not only are these croissants beautiful, but they tasted good too. I wasn’t expecting much, but the croissants were flaky and crispy. And even with the filling, they weren’t overly sweet. My favorite was the birthday cake.
Matcha Green Tea Cookie
We also got a matcha green tea cookie. I love the dusting of matcha powder and the chewy texture.
Overall, we really enjoyed our visit to Union Fare Bakery. I wish we had room to try more items but I was happy that the croissants not only looked good, but actually tasted good too.

Wow, we SO need a bakery like this in San Diego!
I had similar filled croissants at Breadologie in Granada Hills. They had strawberry peach, cookies and cream, blood orange, and honey coffee (with homemade honeycomb).
this would be such a fun addition!
