輕松英語閱讀：一種新型的食物

What do you get when you combine a croissant with a doughnut? The answer is the new treat from New York City, the cronut. The owner of Dominque Anzel Bakery is responsible for this new creation. The cronut is shaped like a regular doughnut but it is comprised of several layers of croissant dough. It is deep fried and then stuffed with vanilla cream. The outside has a flaky texture, while the inside is soft and airy. Finally, it is rolled in sugar and covered with a glaze.

Right now, New Yorkers are lining up from early in the morning to get their cronuts. The bakery often sells out by eight o’clock. That is even with a limit of six per person.

At the moment, cronuts are only available at Dominique Anzel Bakery, or you can make them yourself. (Here’s the recipe.) Let’s hope the idea spreads fast. I am ready for cronuts in my area too.
