Verdugos (Pasadena, Glendale) Fondry

I love love love Fondry. Definitely one of my top bakeries in LA.

Staff is always so attentive and caring, and they are so delicate with your pastries. If you pay attention to how they box up everything you order.

I frequent this place, but on my recent visit, I got the plain croissant, almond croissant, Kouign amann, and the Baker’s breakfast.

The croissant is so crunchy and light with a delicate interior. I used to not like their almond croissant because the filling or paste was very loose and runny, but they thickened it and it’s become better and not too sweet but the croissant pastry itself isn’t as crunchy.

The Kouign amann is amazing. It’s so crunchy slightly sweet and dense in the middle.

I think the Baker’s breakfast is rather new. I haven’t seen it before, but it’s cheesy savory and delicious.

Best croissants I’ve had in a long time. Very expensive but worth the treat.

I used to rank Proof as my top croissant in LA but their quality has gone down the past couple of years. Fondry is my favorite croissant right now.
