Every November, Vancouver’s pastry lovers unite for one of the city’s most delicious traditions — the Vancouver Croissant Crawl. A journey through buttery layers, creative fillings, and artisanal craftsmanship, this citywide event celebrates the art of the croissant in its most imaginative forms. And this year, PAUL Bakery & Café proudly takes part once again, bringing two extraordinary creations to the spotlight: the Suisse Pistachata and the Matcha Cube Croissant.
🥐 Meet the Suisse Pistachata
A modern twist on a Parisian classic, the Suisse Pistachata is a swirl of pain suisse croissant dough filled with creamy pistachio and dark chocolate, topped with delicate strands of crispy kataifi. It’s rich, nutty, and elegant — a croissant that feels as indulgent as dessert yet perfectly balanced for your morning coffee.
Each bite reveals layers of texture: the flaky pastry gives way to smooth pistachio cream and a hint of dark chocolate, all crowned by the satisfying crunch of golden kataifi. It’s a pastry that captures the sophistication and creativity that PAUL is known for.
🍵 Discover the Matcha Cube Croissant
For those seeking something fresh, bold, and photogenic, the Matcha Cube Croissant delivers. This cube-shaped croissant hides a strawberry compote center beneath a swirl of matcha cloud cream, dusted with fine matcha powder for a stunning finish.
The combination of earthy matcha and sweet strawberry creates harmony between modern Japanese flavors and classic French technique — a perfect symbol of Vancouver’s multicultural palate. Each cube is hand-crafted, making every one a little work of art.
☕ Pair Them with Something Special
To complete your Croissant Crawl experience, pair these pastries with one of our signature café drinks — perhaps an Iced Pistachio Chocolate Shake or the Red Fruit Matcha Cloud Latte. Each pairing is thoughtfully designed to highlight the unique flavors of our croissants while offering a cozy, seasonal escape.
