The only variant I had tried is the Chocolate Crodo. The Crodos have a somewhat flaky texture on the exterior that resembles croissants but shaped like a donut, but there is not really much bread filling inside which is good for those who finds donuts too dense for them. Instead, accompanying the chocolate filling inside is a texture that is greatly identical to our Chinese doughsticks (You Tiao), though less the oily or doughy taste with a buttery one that you usually would find in croissants. The chocolate filling was sweet but not overwhelmingly so to cover the taste of the pastry, and so does the hardened chocolate on the top too. Something I particularly do not like about the Crodos would be how oily it was. It does not take much effort to squeeze out the amount of oil absorbed in the pastry; it just gets to your hands just by holding it. I am not sure if the Cronuts are identical in taste and texture to the Crodos, but it is definitely a delectable pastry to have a bite on. Currently there are two flavours sold here at $4.90 per Crodo, which are Cream and Chocolate. Cream comes with sugar coated on the top and a cream filling inside (which I had not tried) while the Chocolate comes with hardened chocolate on the top with chocolate filling inside.
