However, they are definitely labor intensive. A few comments:

– I used an electric mixer as the recipe suggested (Kitchen Aid, sorry), but I was disappointed with the feel of the result. I could have done a better job by hand. That said, the final product was still quite good.
– The recipe and the initial photo-supported step-by-step guide are quite helpful, but need a bit of an editorial review. They’re not entirely aligned with each other, and leave out some timely key information (e.g., rolled out dough size, anticipated rest times, etc.).
– I would love to see a few possible shortcuts to reduce the overall time to presentation. I know a few, but a reference in the article would be useful.

That aside, the croissants were (and are) great. Thank you for the opportunity.
