Many foodies are no strangers to the fusion of desi flavours with international dishes. From chicken tikka pizza to gulab jamun cheesecake, there are many examples of such unconventional combinations. Recently, an X post about "Aamras Croissant" has taken the internet by storm. As the name suggests, this delicacy features an Indian-style sweetened mango pulp filling inside the flaky French treat. Foodies online had a lot to say about it. Reactions were rather divided on the platform. Several users expressed an interest in trying this fusion.

"Tastes 10/10. It's basically roti/poori and aamras in a French way. Personally, as a seasoned mango enjoyer for past 2.5 decades and counting, I think this has fat from oil, carbs from the grains and the mangoness from the mango. In most ways, a complete food."

"Am I the only one to think that this will be really tasty? I mean, the buttery-flakey croissant with a sweet-gooey aamras. It should ideally work."
