National Croissant Day celebrated globally on the 30th of January every year, is connected with the legendary Austrian queen Marie Antoinette, who resided in Versailles. The credit for bringing the pastry to France more than 200 years ago belongs to Marie Antoinette.
Celebrating croissant day, Hamza Gulzar, popularly known as 'Boy Bawarchi' on social media has the best croissant recipes with the most professional aesthetic for his videos. Originally from Pakistan, born and based in Virginia, US, It is impossible to go through Hamza Gulzar's page without wanting to experience his pastries.
Hamza has the most creative croissants of all time with the most recent one being a Green & red peppermint croissant. He has learned his work from his friend and mentor Chef Kiyah Syeda. His connections to his culture and family have been strengthened, and baking and cooking have improved his mental health.
Hamza said in an interview with Hello Magazine, "I’ve never had any kind of formal training or went to any school. At the same time, I don’t like using the word self-taught, because I still learn from others who are kind enough to share their knowledge here and there. Without their generosity in sharing knowledge, I wouldn’t be where I am today so it doesn’t make sense for me to call myself self-taught. I want to especially thank Chef Kiyah Syeda for helping me perfect so many things that I struggled with. I think it’s important to pay respect to the people that have helped you in your growth, and calling myself self-taught would kind of disregard all the help I’ve gotten throughout the years."
