| Feb 11, 2018 at 17:50 | comment | added | user4556274 | @NicolasBousquet, that wikipedia article goes on to note "... some bakers replace the butter with margarine, or make their croissants using frozen pastry (most often margarine-based)." This doesn't answer the OP's question about law, but does counter the suggestion that the use of butter is universal. | |
