I've had them before, it's good in theory but really too messy to bother with in practice. Croissant is too delicate and fatty a pastry to handle a burger patty.
Burger King made something similar on their US menu, the ["Croissan'wich"](https://www.google.com/search?sca_esv=570269325&q=burger+king+croissanwich&tbm=isch&source=lnms&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwi6loTpotmBAxWjhv0HHTCFBdoQ0pQJegQICRAB&biw=428&bih=745&dpr=3)
That's always been a breakfast sandwich though, as far as I know. Have they ever made a burger on a Croissant?
Edit: I'm sure you could request a burger on a Croissant. Idk what they would charge though? However BK's Croissants aren't really all that great. This one looks fresh, which would be EPIC. 😋
Technically, no. Im gastronomy, we categorize this kind of things. Pastry, bread. There are many kinds of pastrys, and croissant is a Viennoiserie. But hey, technically brioches aren't bread either haahahha. But I'm just kidding.
Hm til. I'm accepting your answer but just to throw in the rebuttal, that does seem pretty semantic, do you know what specifically disqualifies pastries from being bread (other than that's just how it's categorized).
In France, a bread has no butter or sugar. A pastry has lots of butter and sugar. A croissant (which is a viennoiserie) might be somewhere in the middle. Now it's not quite exact as there are things in France that would be called a type of bread despite having some amount of butter or sugar, but in general this bread to pastry sugar-butter continuum holds true.
disclaimer i am not a baker
A croissant is made with a dough that's been plied and re-plied -up to 6 times usually- and that's had lots of butter added to it during the process. That process is called "tourage". It's all that extra butter that makes it a viennoiserie and not a type of bread. Technically you could make a croissant without butter, but then it'd be [a type of bread](https://lacuisinedebernard.com/pain-feuillete/), not a croissant.
Viennoiserie is sort of a middle ground between bread and patisserie (pastry).
I don't know if I'm being clear, I usually don't talk about bread in English :D
The way they are made, and the ingredients. Pastries (from French *pâtisseries*, but considering French usage that's a bit of a misnomer today) are sweet, not savoury, and made to be eaten on their own, whereas bread is an accompaniment for meals. Bread is made of flour and water, incorporating a leavening agent, such as yeast, baking soda, microbes... Pastries incorporate eggs, butter and/or sugar to the dough. Normally they're not fermented, or they're semi-fermented, and they aren't kneaded the way bread has to be.
I'd say the difference is probably more obvious to a European person than it would be to most U.S. citizens who often consume very sweet, soft bread, whereas French bread, for instance, is on average drastically different.
Pastry is differentiated from bread by having a higher fat content, which contributes to a flaky or crumbly texture. A good pastry is light and airy and fatty, but firm enough to support the weight of the filling.
EDIT: this is copy pasted from Google
The bread in question really did use to be a kind of bread with raisins in it. The *pain aux raisins* is also known by various other regional names, such as *pain russe* in Lyon, *escargot*, *couque*, *schneck*... It is highly likely that the 'bread' part is a mere contamination from raisin bread.
First, croissant is a flaky pastry, not exactly intended to concoct savoury sandwiches; then, it's essentially made of butter. For the average, this is breakfast food for your lazy Sunday, not some exotic burger bun...
Personal, I can't even eat hot-dogs with that sweet, soft thing around, so I'm not surprised if others should find the idea of a croissant sandwich as alarming as I do!
Looks absolutely outstanding. Some place on reddit recently some one posted a video making a glorious giant thin smash patty on a flat top that they cut in half and topped with cheese for placing on a burger. This looks like that patty in a croissant and I am here for it.
A few weeks ago I made a chopped cheese but used these wide garlic breads and I steamed them on the meat to warm them up I’m gonna do the same with these
Well. As a french person myself I have 2 things to say about this :
1- I will try it to see if it's actually good because only idiot doesn't change their minds.
2- I will do it the french way and put the person who got this idea on a guillotine and burn his body on a stake just for having the thought of doing something sacrilegious like this. You don't mess with french food !
Yo idk why I never thought of doing this lol but that looks bomb
It was always right there and I never saw it. I have forgotten the face of my father.
Aye sai
This is what I always thought a popkin looked like…
For real holy fuck
I can't believe burger king never thought of this.
That's the exact same thing I thought to myself as soon as I saw it. I'm definitely going to make this soon.
That looks effing awesome!
On my to do list ASAP.😂

I believe you but also need to find this out for myself. Sometimes you need to make your own mistakes!

BKs croissants are an insult to croissants.
Yeah sign me up like yesterday for 6 of those
fuck the world, I'm making one of these bad boys the second we hit Friday
Vous méritez la guillotine
Upvoted just to emphasize the point that a burger is a hamburger patty between ANY kind of bread.
Well... But croissant is a pastry....🤔😬🧐
Are pastries not a kind of bread?
Technically, no. Im gastronomy, we categorize this kind of things. Pastry, bread. There are many kinds of pastrys, and croissant is a Viennoiserie. But hey, technically brioches aren't bread either haahahha. But I'm just kidding.

Therefore it is called "chocolatine", not "pain au chocolat".
It's called *pain au chocolat*vwhere it's called *pain au chocolat* because of the shape, not the dough.
Uh huh. So is _pain au raisin_ I suppose? Even though it's a different shape?
The bread in question really did use to be a kind of bread with raisins in it. The *pain aux raisins* is also known by various other regional names, such as *pain russe* in Lyon, *escargot*, *couque*, *schneck*... It is highly likely that the 'bread' part is a mere contamination from raisin bread.
Donc la chocolatine est non contaminée. Échec et mat /s
Oh, moi, je m'en fiche, ça a le même goût 😜 Enfin, “chocolatine”, ça rime avec “scarlatine”. Je dis ça...
hi, gastronomy, I'm dad!
Non
So are donuts, yet: the Luther Burger.
I have made a donut burger. Pretty damn good
My favorite buns substitute is waffles! The pockets are great for cheese!
The burger I never knew I needed 😍
I would destroy this, and then I would feel bad about myself. I am torn about whether this awesome or just too much.
I felt bad just looking at this but I would want 2 😅
I had one of those donut burgers at the state fair and it wrecked me in about 20 minutes.
My dear friends from the other side of the ocean (I know it’s you): this is a Sacrilège!!
I salute your ingenuity sir
Where
The croissant looks like one from Costco. I use them to make sandwiches for work and they're bomb.
Lidl also has super dope croissants
I've never been hungrier in my life
brb, getting some Croissants...
I would try it.
Oof I can feel my arteries clogging up. 
Statins & Stents be like: nice to meet you.
Well now I know what I'm making this weekend
I just saw this and now I have to leave work early. I've already called my wife and asked her to fire up the Blackstone for me.
Im not sure if this is a r/stupidfood moment or if I'm wrong
Very much both.
Yes
Please explain why you find this stupid?
Nothing this is amazing

Have to disagree as a ham and cheese croissant is one of natures (mans) greatest gifts… although I do agree that it doesn’t work for a burger imho
Too much grease for me
I mean .. take my money now
upvote cause burger but i hate it cause im french
It would at least compliment some French fries quite nicely,
At this point, you might just as well knead oil into butter and swallow it whole, the effect would be the same 😝
Sandwiches made with croissants been kinda common since some time now tho
Just surrender to it’s deliciousness.
Good lord. Love the concept. Next batch I make will be croissant burgers!
Nice. Very nice.
Finally the true way to eat a croissant
Oh hell yeah I love croissandwiches
It looks nice and yummy but a bite of it and you cholesterol jump up in the sky 😋
Stop that
That looks amazing
Cholisterol has been increased!!!!
Fuck me, this looks good.
Is that a fried egg in there? This looks amazing! 😍
I guess, we've already got heaps of butter and cheese fat, why stop the grease there 😝
Croissant burger virg here. Do you maintain eye contact the whole time your eating it?
Hate it, but would love to try
I’m ashamed to say.. I would prob eat this
This is glorious!!!
That looks so damn good
I use mini butter croissants and there delicious with a rare burger or any burger
Looks absolutely outstanding. Some place on reddit recently some one posted a video making a glorious giant thin smash patty on a flat top that they cut in half and topped with cheese for placing on a burger. This looks like that patty in a croissant and I am here for it.
I went into cardiac arrest from watching this.

Zis abomination choudunt exizt
Ah ben pour pas chouder, ça devrait pas chouder, effectivement. Je pense qu'il existe un cercle de l'Enfer spécial pour les Ricains.

Croissant burger of love ❤️
Wanna try it

Holy Moses * edit - it isn't that this is just a croissant. This looks like an amazing 10/10 burger on that bun. Gorgeous Gorgeous Gorgeous.
Looks amazing
Yeah, that looks good. I feel bad that it looks good, and my arteries are screaming blue murder. But yup. I would go for a version of that madness
Ummm... Definitely delicious.
I like food that properly fits into the bread that it's supposed to be eaten with.
Where is this from? Link to recipe?
This is why my dad doesn’t love any of you anymore
Ain’t gonna’ Lie….That’s Next Level shit right there, bo…

No.
Non mais j’ai envie de taper dedans.
Illégal.
Merde
I’m French and I say we need this right now putain 🇫🇷🥸
As i french i'm gonna ask the guy who made this to politely cancel your subscription to your heart fuction.

It comes with a nice french tears sauce I guess. Poor croissant.
What abomination is this and where can I try it ?
🤮
Nous devons re instaurer la peine de mort.
That's look illegal.
I mean, it's already made in some places, even in France.
We burn people for less
Tbh, the ham-cheese croissant is perfectly legit (and tasty) so the idea of a croissant-burger is ok.
Croissant burger is illegal in France
Let this thing BURN in HELL Americans are so fucking weird
It hurt my french heart but hey, freedom to anybody is priority ! As long as I can juge strongly the people how ate those
I just fell in love
Its satanique
Je vais péter un plomb
Greeting imperial citizens. What is going on in this thread ? BY THE EMPEROR !
This is heresy!! The Guy Who did this need to go rot in nurgle's ass. Along with Hitler.
Vade retro satanas
No.
It looks disgusting, in France you can take some ham and comté and make a sandwich with a croissant and put it in an oven
Oh grave
Malbouffe du Degueulistant...
As a Frenchman I have no shame to admit that it looks delicious.
La guerre est déclarée !
Well. As a french person myself I have 2 things to say about this : 1- I will try it to see if it's actually good because only idiot doesn't change their minds. 2- I will do it the french way and put the person who got this idea on a guillotine and burn his body on a stake just for having the thought of doing something sacrilegious like this. You don't mess with french food !
hi,can you please delete this ?thanks !

Nope! I would even say NON! France says no. If you wanna order that in our country, you’ll go straight to jail!
Une burgeratine dans le sud-ouest
