Cronut

[1][2] It resembles a doughnut and is made from croissant-like dough filled with flavored cream and fried in grapeseed oil.

That night, a blogger from Grub Street, the online restaurant blog from New York magazine, reported on the new pastry.

[3][1] The post resulted in much interest and online circulation, and by the third day, a line of over 100 people had formed outside the shop to buy it.

[7][8] After the release of the Cronut, similar products have sprung up throughout the world including some with different names such as the Kelownut,[9] Doughssant,[10] Crullant,[11] zonut,[12] and others.

[16] Writing for the Village Voice in May 2013, Tejal Rao proclaimed the Cronut Ansel's "masterpiece".
