Critical Success Points

  • Brush croissants evenly with simple syrup to prevent dryness.
  • Do not over‑fill with almond cream; excess will leak during baking.
  • Bake until the almond cream reaches an internal temperature of at least 75°C (165°F) to ensure the egg is fully cooked.

Safety Warnings

  • Hot oven and baking sheet can cause burns; always use oven mitts.
  • Simple syrup is hot when prepared; handle with care.
  • Almond cream contains raw egg; ensure it reaches 75°C (165°F) during baking.
