Suddenly, each croissant began whispering softly in perfect French, describing its ingredients and origins. A regular customer exclaimed, ‘Mon Dieu!

Next morning, he brought back his package wrapped in what looked like a golden glow. When asked how it tasted, he shrugged and said, 'Not bad, but I prefer mine without all that extra sunlight.' The regular laughed and replied, 'Welcome to Trompeau Bakery—where even the rumors are sweet.'
