The way the item is phrased "Mini Croissant Swirls Chocolate Chip" instead of Mini Chocolate Chip Croissant Swirls makes us wonder if more flavor options are in the works.

Trader Joe's Mini Croissant Swirls - Chocolate Chip Review


He says (Mark): A very fun size I've never seen before. All the crispiness and less mess with the little flakes (unlike a full-size croissant where loads of stuff crumbles off). I'd definitely want at least two to start with, maybe more. They have the texture one would expect from a croissant with a perfect flaky crunch. I'd actually prefer mine without the chocolate (gasp!!).
Overall rating: 4 out of 5 stars


She says (Bridget): Perfection. The croissant dough bakes up crisp and flaky on the exterior while the center is soft. The added chocolate chips are melty and delicious without being too gooey or messy. I love that these bake straight from frozen and don't need an hours-long or overnight rise. 
Overall rating: 5 out of 5 stars

[NOTE: If you have any leftover, wrap and store at room temp. The next day, pop in your air fryer at 380 for about 4 minutes. They come out warm and re-crisped!]
