Hint: When rolling them, add cinnamon+sugar (on the inside, of course), maybe some additional salt, to bring out the buttery flavor, a bit more.

I work in a bakery and love making tiny breads and cakes with scrap dough and little cake cutouts. The smallest loaf of bread I ever made was an inch, complete with score marks, and a 1.5 inch cake iced and decorated with roses, trim and borders-the whole shebang. The bread made slices big enough to fit a little slice of a cherry tomato, and the cake made perfect Barbie sized slices. Totally edible just tiny

Awww Marcel the shell with shoes on would be proud!

Maybe you could do a quick butter dunk coating and then roll around in the caramel dusting. You would pick up the butter flavor that you are looking for and more caramel dust would stick to the outside. Might be nice to sit and eat like popcorn. 😋

Ann Reardon (How to Cook That) has a very thorough explanation of how to make a croque em bouche. She takes a whisk and cuts off part of the end and then uses that to make the caramel "hair."

Emmy... if anybody could make a croquembouche, it would be YOU! I would love to see that.. why wait until next Christmas? Any time of the year would be good for a croquembouche.. I've never had one, but they look divine. I have made my own profiteroles though and those turned out great, so that is half the battle! Can't wait to watch the rest of the video. Hoping that the Emmymade family had a wonderful holiday season. Peace to everyone in the comment section! Take care all!

I wander if you brush the crescents with butter and then toss them in the caramel to get more butter flavor and more coverage of caramel.

So adorable! 😂 Mini croissants with huge cuteness 🥰

Dufour brand is butter only, I do believe, so the buttery flavor would have been stronger. Thanks for sharing this technique!😊

All they needed was googly eyes and shoes - they totally look like marcell the shell! 😂🥰 Also, Trader Joe’s has all-butter puff pastry - it’s seasonal, tho and is only sold around the holidays. It’s delicious!

your marcel the shell voice is great! lol

I LOVE YOUR VIDS EMMY!!!!

So tiny little cute, looks small than candy, nice idea adding caramel syrup. Looks glazed

I already know that I would never have the patience for this one 😂

$50 for a box of cereal? I’d like to know in times like these… who tf has that kind of money???

Omgggg! The smallest creation of bread I didn’t know I kneadedddd! (Hehe get it) but that looks delicious🤤. I have to give it a try.

I could never take the time to do this, but I do like the idea of breaking up palmier (butterfly, elephant ear, palmera, palmerita) cookies and eating them with milk. Will have to try that. Thanks for the idea Emmy!

Please never quit KZfaq!

Ahh, Emmy with a Marcel the Shell with Shoes On reference. Be still my beating heart. Also, I’m so surprised you haven’t made caramel before this! You did great! Love anytime I’m able to check off another item off the ol’ “skills I want to acquire” checklist. I don’t remember when I first made caramel, but I know it was later than most chefs/bakers probably, and now it’s one of my most used components.

They are adorable! 😃 What a huge amount of work.

You made me laugh. I, too am a California ex pat who spent 5 years in Rhode Island. I remember Saturday mornings watching KQED public TV in San Francisco with my roommates viewing what we called "Cartoons for Adults". Julia Child, Martin Yan, all of them. My favorite Julia Child episode was when she made her Bouche de Noel when she threw sugar over the broom handle to make moss for decor. It truly got out of hand. Spun sugar flew everywhere. We still laugh about it to this day.

Your Marcel the shell with shoes on was pretty great and adorable.

I am dealing with my third bout of COVID and seeing that you’ve posted a new video has made me feel so much better. ❤️

Your Marcel the Shell With Shoes On impression was top notch!

First time I made homemade caramel was in high school chemistry class. We dipped our fingers in water then were able to handle the hot sugar and mold it into shapes. It was a blast. Until I got distracted and dipped my finger in the caramel first, then the water solidifying a burning bit of sugar onto my fingertip. No lasting damage fortunately.

You know you’re an Emmy follower when you knew she was going to call them “Stnkin Cute “ . That they are . I now know what I am doing tomorrow.

The caramel procedure is what you use when making flan, it does turn into a syrup when the custard is poured over and the flan is steamed. Not sure I’d want to eat as cereal with milk but would be fun as a snack.and wondering what would happen if you coated them directly in the liquid caramel?

1, mini croque monsieur, please. Wow,that was a lot of work, Emmy ❣️ Happy New Year to you and your lovely family ❤

Have you ever eaten buttered popcorn as a breakfast cereal? Make sure no un-popped kernels make it into the bowl. A sprinkle of sugar or cinnamon sugar is good too before you add the milk. Great way to use up leftover popcorn.

This is so adorable!! Happy new years Emmy and family!!

that caramel looked AMAZING like I’m floored it’s your first time making it! these baby croissants are seriously the cutest little things 😍😍😍 I too love those candy making videos, and yes please I’m so curious about the Julia Child croquembouche, a daunting but exciting challenge! Speaking of - 1, mini croque monsieur, please!

I wonder if using the Pillsbury brand crescent dough in the can would give it more buttery flavor and still give it the same texture?.. Also I bet this would be delicious with some cinnamon sugar inside before cutting and rolling them up. Or maybe even pumpkin spice for the pumpkin spice lovers. I'm not one but that still also came to mind. Lol

The sugar over a broom stick is called spun sugar you can pour twist it into many shapes (like over a steel to create whispy nests or twirl it to make sugar twirls) can also spoon this over a greased upturned bowl to make sugar bowls for deserts

I vote yes on the croque ‘em bouche

As an American French dual national. I read the title of the video and instantly the theme song to Team America played in my head.

7:35Emmy after her first dab❤woww!! No hate, I LOVE how excited you get ❤

you could do a mini croc en bouche, even use modeling chocolate as the glue instead of caramel, very easy

This is most adorable!!! Looks delicious too! Love your voiceover! 😆👍

Tried a croquembouche this year at Christmas. Believe me… get a cone to stick the puffs too otherwise it will collapse. The choux buns were delicious with eggnog custard in some and a vanilla orange in others and spinning sugar just with 2 forks but we didn’t have the cone … good luck! Can’t wait to see next Christmas

For a simple breakfast now and then, I love having a buttery, flakey, warm croissant or two with rich, cold chocolate milk, (dipping optional, but encouraged). I had not heard of croissant cereal before! What a wonderful idea! Of course, I would absolutely pour in chocolate milk instead.

I love the Ithaca Is Gorges shirt. As a person that lives about 40 minutes away, I couldn’t agree more!

Emmy, you should totally tackle the crocumbouche! I've made a couple of them and they're not as intimidating as they seem. I used Claire Saffitz's recipe (with some minor tweaks) and had great success!! You've got this 👏

I probably would've made a simple traditional caramel corn mix with butter, brown sugar and corn syrup and coated the cereal with it and slow cooked, or dried?, it the way you do with caramel corn so it gets that nice light thin caramel coating. 😋

OMG Marcelle the Shell!!! SO STINKIN' CUTEEEEEE!!!

I love how often you mention Claire 'half sour' Saffits (sp) on your channel. I love the way you both cook and communicate! ❤

You should make the mini donut cereal (love your vids by the way they always make me happy when I'm down)

You're a creative genius! 🎨 - "Believe you can and you're halfway there..."

Cute ep. Kind of surprised you've never done caramel before. Happy New Year! 🎉

You could sprinkle some powder on the pastry before you roll them up to get some more sweet.

I'd have to make mini ham and cheese croissants out of these 😂😂😂

Something to look out for with store-bought puff pastries is to double check whether they're made with all-butter or vegetable oil. I think Pepperidge Farm puff pastry sheets are made with the latter, which might be why you didn't get much buttery flavour in the end. Loved this video, thank you Emmy!

Hey Emmy, have you ever seen the mini food craft kits called Miniverse? They use adorable miniature foods and resin to make tiny models of food! For your love of all things mini, I think you'd love them, and I'd love to watch you make some, you'd boss it! ❤❤❤

I would trust Emmys opinion on the taste of literally anything

Emmy talking like Marcel's family just made my day

your marcel impression is so spot on 🤣

I would love to see you give that recipe a try next Christmas lol

Wow! That's adorable!!! Also, impressed with that caramel result, considering it's your first time, it looks perfect! I made caramel a handful of times (love it) but I always have a hard time with it. Congratulations on your result! Also, if you didn't use sugar from sugar cane (regular white, but not beet or corn based) please try it. Much better in my personal opinion, flavor wise, for everything. Have a great New Year!! 🥂

We made sugar glass in science one year, it's used in movies to replace real glass, or it was said that it used to be. I'm sure there is a more realistic way now. It took a lot of sugar as it does burn really easy.

This inspired me to try my hand at these and they turned out great! Definitely labor intensive but they worked so well in milk I was surprised. I have some leftover caramel dust that I think I'll try on normal croissants as an easy and light dessert.

5:20 careful adding more sugar in the middle of the cooking process because it can crystalize. all at once and trust the process! x

Yes. Emma's Goodies made mini foods.

I love how you are wearing an Ithaca is Gorges shirt as a class of 2017 Cornellian here 😊

They're adorable!

Try melting butter rolling them in that then dusting them with the caramel it will make them more buttery and more of the suger will stick

I would love if you made Julia Child's croquembouche!

Yes, Emmy, please try a croquembouche! We had one as our wedding cake 33 years ago and I'll never forget how delicious it was and how stunning it looked.

I so love this channel. Thank you for sharing your ideas and insights. ❤️🤙🏻 Always therapeutic to watch. 🥰 Jake.

Of course you did Emmy of course you did 😂🥺I expect nothing less precious

Adorable minis!

you sounded JUST like marcel lmaooooo that was too cute 🤣

I love this channel so much.

is this a start for a miniature food saga? cuz im down for that

I would make these But I honestly would not eat them as cereal, it just seems it would be to heavy as a cereal I would just make them and have them as a sweet snack with coffee

If I ever made these, which will never happen, I’d rather dip or drizzle the hot caramel over the croissants so they were truly coated. A tiny crouque en buche would be stupidly cute.

Can you do a series where you make tiny versions of things?!

Great experiment Emmy! Your caramel is exactly how I used to make it for flan. Please warn people to be very careful if they try this, that stuff is hotter than a two dollar pistol!! Easy to burn yourself so use lots of caution! I’d love to see you make a croquembouche!

If you ever come to France don't pass up the opportunity to have a look in a frozen foods shop called Picard. It's full of miniature things (sandwiches, pastries, burgers, sausages, quiches - all kinds of amuse-bouches). I think you'd love it.

I’m curious if you could use filo pastry sheets in the same manner. I think that if you laid out just one sheet of filo and brushed it with melted butter then sieved a little powdered or confectionery sugar across the surface before adding a second sheet on top then cutting out the triangles and rolling them into shape, it should produce a more cereal like texture and taste once cooked but I would reduce the oven settings and timings due to the size of the individual pieces.

1, mini crogue monsieur, please.

Happy New Year!! Have you ever had those candied almonds where they use layers of caramel to coat an almond... wonder what it would taste like to.make these in that style....

I've long wanted mini croissant breakfast cereal, but have them coated (or filled) with cappucino powder.

Your imitation of Marcel is astonishingly accurate… 😂

I would love to see you make a kransekake, the Norwegian pastry tower.

“1, mini croque monsieur, please.” :P

I think I’d dip the bottom of the croissants in the hot caramel. Then serve them on a plop of soft-peak-whipped cream in a shot glass as an hors d’oeuvre.

I was so excited when you started the Marcel voice because I was in the middle of typing a comment OMG THEY LOOK LIKE MARCELS! 😂

Emmy your the best !!!

The timing of a cereal-related recipe showing up in my feed is kind of funny. I work in a grocery store and a cereal-related debate has started over the last few days… Is cereal a condiment? 😅 A customer came in asking where the condiments were and then got upset when we directed them to the aisle with the ketchup, mustard, etc. Turns out they wanted cereal when they asked for condiments. 🙃 This then spiralled into a coworker asking if ketchup is a smoothie… Anyhoo…I love the idea of mini croissant cereal! I might actually try this one day if I actually develop the patience to work with puff pastry lol.

Fun fact: Marie Antoinette is responsible for croissants. She was from Austria and they had a pastry called “kipfel” which was “invented” to celebrate the Austrian victory over the Ottomans invading Vienna. The crescent shape represented the moon on the Ottoman flag. So, thanks Marie! I’ve always had a soft spot for her. 👑❤🥐 Also, Nigella Lawson has a recipe for a caramel croissant bread pudding that is easy and DELICIOUS!

Palmiers eaten with fresh pineapple, in the same bite, are heavenly.

I believe the "butterfly cookie" you're referring to is a palmier, a French pastry. I can totally see how it would taste like that!

Those butterfly 🦋 biscuits here in Italy are called Sfogline, delicious 😋

All current puff pastries are made with hydrogenated oils with soy bean emulsifiers and preservative. Those all lots of fun! Can’t believe the dust melted to a crunchy crust.

omg you were exactly who i thought of when i saw susur lee eat these

You should make caramel bowl next!! If you havent though.

MARCEL THE SHELL!! I miss him and love you that much more for the reference😂🥰.....🐌

As a kid we use to bake sugar cubes to make Carmel candies.

Emmy is so adorable 😂

I've thought about making these. But instead of buying puff pastry it's almost as easy to make rough puff pastry from the British bake off. I think its Paul Hollywood's recipe. Its so simple it's scary. Only issue is it's best made the day ahead then do the roll out next morning It's flour/butter/salt and water. And it uses the food processor! Lol

you should make a tiny croquembouche!! 🎄🌟
