I’ve always wondered how people get the outer layer onto the croissant (and so thin, just like all the other layers that were laminated many times over).
Do you just roll it as thin as you can get as a single ply, plop it on top, and then roll the whole sheet to the desired size/thickness? Or is there some other method to do it? As a home baker, it just seems impossible to get the layer that thin!

It looks like you colored the butter? but is that also from the butter for the outside crust?! It looks so beautiful and consistent I’m drooling lmaooo

They look flakey perfect. Red stripes would go great with green.
