During these Olympic weeks in Milan, we all feel a little more athletic. It’s true, the weather isn’t the best, but a jog along the Navigli or a walk to the megastore in Piazza Duomo are always possible. After a bit of physical activity, however, you need to replenish your energy, perhaps with a hearty breakfast (or a sweet snack). Mountain-shaped croissants and snow-covered rolls themed around Milan-Cortina 2026… Where can you have a breakfast fit for champions?
The Ègalité pastry shop is celebrating the Milan-Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics with two special croissants that immediately went viral on the web. The first is called “Croissant des Alpes” because its shape resembles a snow-capped mountain: the top is covered with white sugar icing, evoking snow, while the center is filled with creamy gianduia ganache. The other version is the “Roll Neige, “ a croissant roll filled with coconut ganache and covered with icing and shredded coconut.
Ègalité is a French-inspired venue where you can find the most delicious pastries. It has several locations in Milan, at Corso Sempione 10, Piazza San Simpliciano 7, and Via Melzo 22. With cozy tables and a mouthwatering display case, if you’re looking for a place to enjoy an excellent snack, Ègalité is the place for you. While many of their iconic and delicious creations can be enjoyed all year round, the Olympic croissants are a limited edition.
