Some of the best desserts start with a familiar flavour and take an unexpected turn. Think of the syrup-soaked gulab jamun served after a family meal, then picture the crisp layers of a freshly baked French croissant. The Gulab Jamun Croissant brings those two favourites together, giving Dubai’s sweet-toothed crowd a new treat to pass around the table. It’s meant to get a little messy.
A box of sweets often arrives at an office gathering, a family visit or a weekend get-together with one unwritten rule: everyone gets to try a piece. Mister Baker’s Croissant au Mithai follows that familiar ritual with fifteen mini croissants in a single sharing box. Made with 100% French butter and no margarine, the pastries are crisp outside, soft inside and finished with rich gulab jamun syrup. Keep the napkins close.
The combination taps into a wider appetite for desserts that bring familiar flavours into new formats. Dubai’s food scene has made room for playful cross-cultural creations, from globally inspired sweets to pastries with unexpected fillings. Mister Baker takes a distinctly Indian route, using the syrupy sweetness of gulab jamun rather than simply adding another chocolate or pistachio variation. It feels familiar, but different.
There’s a reason mini desserts work well at gatherings. Guests can reach for one between conversations, colleagues can split a box during an afternoon break, and hosts can put something new on the table without committing to a full cake. At AED 59 for fifteen pieces, Mister Baker’s Gulab Jamun Croissant is made for exactly those moments. One box, plenty to pass around.
The new creation was developed by Mister Baker’s culinary team under Chef Bhupendra Singh, following earlier mithai-inspired products including Gulab Jamun Cake and Rasmalai Cake. The bakery, founded in 1990, is drawing on its place in UAE birthday parties and family celebrations while experimenting with flavours that connect generations. A little nostalgia goes a long way.
Available until 15 November 2026, the Croissant au Mithai can be found at twenty participating outlets across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and Ajman. It’s best enjoyed fresh and has a two-day shelf life, so advance ordering is recommended. If you’re bringing dessert to the next gathering, this is one box worth sharing before the syrup gets everywhere.
