- 1Plural of croissant.

Note
A borrowed word with an entirely regular plural: English simply adds -s, so it is one croissant and a basket of croissants. Each one is a flaky, crescent-shaped roll, a thing you can count, so the plural takes many and few rather than much and little. You would say many croissants, or there were only a few croissants left.
