The coffee chain Piccolo Me started back in 2012 and has 12 outlets as we write. Their menu is a mix of dishes, they serve a Cheesy Frenchy (a Cheeseburger in a croissant), a Piccologato (a twist on the classis affogato) and since a couple of months the Crospresso!

The Vive La Tarte bakery, located in the Ferry Building in San Francisco created the Tacro, the newest croissant-hybrid food craze.
