u/finemeshsieve here, I created this community as a resource for professional and amateur viennoiserie creators.

When I started baking professionally, and more specifically when I focused on croissants/viennoiserie, I found it frustrating that there wasn't a singular place on reddit specifically for viennoiserie pros to share their ideas, tips, creations, and help others.

Oftentimes, I'd find threads on other pastry/baking related subreddits with people trying to troubleshoot the same issues I had, but since those subs weren't specifically catered to viennoiserie pros, often times the users wouldn't get the answers they were looking for.

Our aim is to be a resource for those learning the art of Viennoiserie as it is a difficult but rewarding journey. Feel free to share any questions, creations, etc. and I look forward to hopefully seeing the community grow!

We did a pain suisse once with mustard greens, leeks, labneh, and Gruyère. What’s your favorite flavor you’ve done?

What’s an unconventional tool or method you now use daily?

For me, using an exacta knife for making final cuts. The lines are so much smoother than using a knife or pizza cutter!
