Original Croissants Question

Topaz Gem — Sat, 26 Nov 2016 19:38:19 GMT

Does anyone know if QVC still sells the croissants in the size that they came In when they first arrived? I recently completed an A/D plan for 'large' croissants and when I ordered them, I thought I was getting the original size, but they were smaller than the originals. They seem to be getting smaller and smaller, much to my dismay.

The original size was perfect, IMO.

I also thought that they had gotten smaller, but as they are now, they are just fine with me.

I tried the jumbo croissants # M51593, but they were too big for me. Perhaps you want to try those?

Thanks, Clem, I'll check out the item number you posted. I don't know why QVC started messing with the sizes. The original size was perfect and they sold really well. Now I don't know which ones to order, as some of the item numbers don't state the size. The minis are cute, but to charge over $50.00 for a bag of them is highway robbery.

I just checked out the video for the jumbo croissants. They are definitely larger than the original size, as David said that it was the first time that QVC ever offered a size this large. They might be better for me, though, as I thought that the 'large' ones were a bit too small. I'll give them a try.

Also, I remember that the original croissants tasted much more buttery. There was no doubt that they were made with real butter, but the ones that I received in my last A/D plan were not nearly as buttery.

I hope that QVC will bring back the original ones in the original recipe and label them as such so that buyers know what they're getting.
