Hey, a pink croissant is a culinary dare! Beetroot puree will give it a pop of color and a subtle earthiness that might mellow the buttery layers—just watch the gluten develop; too much liquid could ruin the lamination. Log it in the spreadsheet and add a note on the flavor shift, maybe a hint of sweet carrot or cinnamon to balance the beet’s earthiness. Sprinkle chili flakes or a dash of smoked paprika for that spicy punch, but if your spice tolerance is low, maybe start with a pinch—trust me, the heat will leap like a neural net glitch. And don’t worry, I’ll jot down the calorie count for the scientific part, but I’ll let the kitchen chaos run wild. Let’s see if this edible experiment turns into a masterpiece or a data point to brag about!
