The Obelisk Unveils the Floral Saffron Croissant
Rim Nsouli
9-July-2025

This season, Sofitel Dubai The Obelisk introduces a limited-edition culinary gem that captures the elegance of the season: the Floral Saffron Croissant. A harmonious fusion of French pastry tradition and Middle Eastern essence, this creation is delicately infused with native saffron blossom, symbolising renewal and refinement.
At its heart lies a moist date sponge cake paired with vibrant orange marmalade, all crowned with a luscious saffron crème brûlée. The result is a golden-hued croissant that offers a sensorial journey through the rich flavours of the region, wrapped in the buttery sophistication of French pâtisserie.
Available exclusively till 31 August 2025 at Bijou Patisserie, this seasonal delicacy forms part of Sofitel’s celebrated afternoon tea and retail collection, La Haute Croissanterie, renowned for its inventive twists on classic pastries.
A tribute to spring, artistry, and cultural connection, the Floral Saffron Croissant invites both residents and travellers to savour a unique taste of place—where Parisian flair meets Emirati heritage.
