ROTTERDAM, 13 June 2023 – Exciting news for croissant lovers in Rotterdam: Yvette Jansen and Nadia Stam, two passionate locals, are soon to be offering their unique, fresh-baked croissants to the city.

Yvette Jansen and Nadia Stam's dream becomes reality

The dream of Yvette Jansen and Nadia Stam of starting their own bakery in the city where they were born and raised is soon to be fulfilled. From 17 June, residents and visitors alike will have the opportunity to enjoy freshly baked croissants, bread, pastries, and quality coffee at their croissant workshop, aptly named 'Krozant'. “Our vision is truly coming to life!” they expressed with enthusiasm.

Unique offerings at 'Krozant'

Located at the iconic Groot Handelsgebouw (GHG) in the city's heart, Krozant, Yvette and Nadia's first venture, is set to open soon. Visitors can expect a wide range of baked goods. Classics such as chocolate or coffee buns will be available, as well as more unique creations such as a croissant filled with chicken thigh and mango chutney or a BLT croissant with lemon mayonnaise. In addition, the menu includes other sweet and savoury pastries, sandwiches, and coffee from Rotterdam’s Giraffe Coffee Roasters.
