Luxurious taste
Luxurious taste. Very nice with a cup of tea. Im glad they come in a cardboard box instead off an unnecessary plastic container. Well done Tesco for being more eco friendly
Tastes like cardboard
Older version of this product was more wastefully packaged but the new product in the new package tastes substantially worse. The texture of the croissant is still just as good but unfortunately the croissant itself tastes exactly like cardboard. Quite unpleasant and leaves an awful, indescribable aftertaste.
Don't bother, keep your money
They are not at all like real Croissants. Disappointing
Worst croissants taste there is.
I have at least one croissant every morning and am wondering what on earth have you done to these ones. Am certain the butter being used is inferior if it is butter. Thought first it was me but my partner went to the Co-op and bought a pack from them and it was like night and day ? I don't want a refund as gave them to the dogs but as I shop weekly and can only shop elsewhere until you sort it out as believe me yours are rubbish and the buyer needs informed.
Very disappointing, slight cardboard taste

Good but a little dry
Taste and texture good but a little dry. Keep well if frozen.
Yuk
Oily and undercooked
An Analysis of Finest compared to Regular
Abstract: If you have a quid to spare, consider buying these over the regular ones. As written by a relative of the user: Out of bored--I mean, curiosity, I bought 1 pack of 8 regular croissants and a pack of 4 Finest ones. I then weighed both products sans packaging, randomly (I mean, they all looked uniformly squished) selected two of each and baked them for the recommended time. I wasn't about to scarf down four croissants as an afternoon snack, so I asked the account owner to share his opinion--and guilt--with me afterwards. I considered testing samples of non-baked croissants for control, but couldn't justify consuming the extra calories without the pleasure of crunchy buttery flakes. -The Finest range is about 30% more expensive than the regular croissant by weight (at approx. 260g vs 340g). That means you pay roughly £1.70 extra per kg as of May 2020. -These are about 50% larger than the regular ones. -80% flakier and tastier...ish. Subjectively. Overall, while not the best croissant around, it's alright for the pricetag and convenience. (Also, I hope they freeze well.)
I found these okay but a bit dry.
These are okay to eat, but would highly recommend heating them in the oven first...180c (fan) for 5 minutes before eating. I purchased these to have warm with my morning coffee. These are not the same as the previous Tesco finest croissants in the blue package which I did enjoy. These ones are smaller, the texture is dryer when you pull them apart to eat they just come apart, they don’t stretch like the other ones used to. I think they have less butter in the making of these, Hence why they are dryer and not as moist and don’t have that same buttery taste.
Don't Recommend
Tesco sent me these as a substitute to what I had ordered online-ugh they were doughy and there wasn't much flavour either. Disappointed to say the least especially as they are from Tesco's 'Finest' range!
