Croissant-Based Breakfast Sandwiches

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Panera Has a New Croissant Bacon, Egg & Cheese Sandwich

— August 24, 2024 — Lifestyle
Hot on the heels of a new pastry lineup, Panera has just announced the debut of three new breakfast sandwiches: the Croissant Bacon, Egg & Cheese, Croissant Sausage, Egg & Cheese, and Croissant Egg & Cheese.

All three of the new croissant breakfast sandwiches offer a fresh twist on Panera classic breakfast sandwiches. First, there's the new Croissant Bacon, Egg & Cheese, which pairs applewood smoked bacon with scrambled egg and melty aged white cheddar on a flaky croissant. Next up is the Croissant Sausage, Egg & Cheese, which combines sausage with scrambled egg and melty aged white cheddar on a croissant. Finally, there's the meat-free Croissant Egg & Cheese, which features the classic pairing of scrambled egg and melty aged white cheddar on a croissant. As Alicia Mowder, SVP of Product Strategy & Insights at Panera Bread, explains, "We are thrilled to bring these new croissant sandwiches to our breakfast menus nationwide, along with an expanded selection of delicious bakery treats."
