Cruffin is a cross between a croissant and a muffin – it's a muffin that's made from laminated croissant dough and filled with different flavors and ingredients such as pastry cream, peanut butter, cream and strawberries, chocolate, salted caramel, and many others. This treat is a recent invention – it is believed that the first one was created in 2013 by Kate Reid of Lune Croissanterie in Melbourne, Australia. It was subsequently popularized and trademarked by Mr. Holmes Bakehouse of San Francisco.

The famous Pistachio Cruffin –> Overhyped / 10 The long queue might raise your expectations, but for me, it didn’t deliver. The sugar crystals on top were too coarse and distracting. The pistachio filling was unevenly spread, some bites were bland, others overwhelmingly rich. Overall, the pistachio-to-pastry ratio was off. Not worth a 30-minute wait.
