Croissant Butter Sheet Extra Tourage 82% 1KG

If you've ever struggled to get clean, defined layers in your croissants, the butter is usually where the problem starts. Candia Extra Tourage Butter Sheet 82% is specifically designed for laminated dough — engineered to stay pliable during folding, hold its structure through the cold resting phases, and deliver the kind of pronounced, honeycomb-open crumb that separates a great croissant from a mediocre one.

Made in France by Candia, one of France's leading dairy brands, from selected dairy raw materials using traditional know-how and modern production standards. At 82% butterfat, there's less water than standard butter — and less water means less steam disrupting your layers during baking, and a richer, more pronounced butter flavour in the finished pastry.

Why Tourage Butter Matters

Standard butter is too soft and tears during lamination, and too cold and it shatters rather than bending with the dough. Tourage butter is formulated to have a specific plasticity — a working range where it bends cleanly rather than breaking or leaking. Candia Extra Tourage holds its shape through the folds without cracking, which means your layers stay intact and distinct all the way through the bake.

The result: croissants with defined, visible layers, a full honeycomb interior, a deep golden crust with a proper shatter, and the rich, rounded flavour of real French butter in every bite.

What You Can Make With It
