The Magic of Crouton-Crusting


Crouton-crusting isn't just a fancy term; it's a culinary technique that adds a delightful twist to the traditional way of enjoying fruits. The idea is to coat the fruit with crushed croutons, giving it a crispy exterior.

This enhances the texture and adds a savoury note, making it a perfect treat for those who love a mix of sweet and savoury flavours.

Why Peaches?


With their soft flesh and natural sweetness, peaches make an excellent choice for crouton-crusting. Their juicy nature complements Tipiak's plain croutons, creating a balance of textures in every bite.


Moreover, peaches are rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, making them a healthy choice for dessert.

For those who prefer a tangy twist, a raspberry or blueberry sauce can be a great addition.
