Did you know that coffee dates back to 800 A.D? While this old beverage dominates the global market, it’ll interest you to know that India alone produces more than three lakh tonnes of coffee every year, and Karnataka contributes to 85 per cent of this. When serving a beverage it is important that you pair it with an appropriate bite to go the full circle on showing hospitality to your guests. While you could serve tea with multiple bites, there are a few recommendations that come in to play when you pair your coffee with treats. Here are a few food pairings that go well with coffee:
Croissant
This crispy puff pastry makes for the perfect snack to enjoy with a hot cup of coffee.

Butter croissant is a popular flavour that’s usually paired with coffee. Croissant can also be enjoyed along with a hot cup of coffee with a number of other toppings.
