For a small soft-pastry purchase with a published price, Kroger’s four-pack is $5.99 for Rolla pickup; Costco’s 12-pack fits a larger order, and Ppang BuJang is the savory Korean snack choice.
- Kroger’s Private Selection Chocolate Croissants are listed as four pieces, 12 ounces total, $5.99, or $0.50 per ounce, with pickup at Rolla and delivery unavailable.
- Costco’s 7Days Vanilla Croissants come as 12 individually wrapped 2.65-ounce pastries; its 2-Day delivery fee is waived on orders of $75 or more.
- Nongshim Ppang BuJang Salted Butter Roll is one 55 g bag per serving, a Korean salted-bread snack rather than a soft pastry.
- L’Atelier K’s Chocolate Croissant case contains 15 six-piece packs, or 90 pastries, for group-size buying.
Match the format to how you will eat it: Costco’s 7Days vanilla pastries are individually wrapped, Kroger’s chocolate croissants need thawing, rising and baking, and Ppang BuJang is a single-bag savory snack. Compare the checkout total by both package weight and piece count, then choose the format you will actually eat: a dozen individually wrapped pastries, a small bag of mini chocolate croissants, a single salted-butter snack, or a bulk chocolate case.
Compare the delivered price, not just the package sticker
Use two unit prices for a fair online check: cost per ounce for the amount of food, and cost per piece or bag for the number of snack occasions. The NIST Unit Pricing Guide recommends consistent units for similar products, including products sold through e-commerce. For these packages, divide the item price by net ounces and by the listed number of pieces, then add the applicable delivery charge to the order total before dividing again.
For a single-item order, put the full delivery fee on that item. For a larger cart, use one consistent way to allocate the shipping cost across the products you are comparing. A 12-piece box may have a lower price per pastry, while a small bag may cost less overall and reduce the risk of buying more than you will eat. Per-piece math and per-ounce math answer different questions, so use both when the packages differ in size.
1. Best documented multipack value: 7Days Vanilla Croissants at Costco
The Costco listing shows a 12-count box of individually wrapped 7Days soft-baked croissants with vanilla filling. Each pastry is 2.65 ounces, and the listed package net weight is 31.8 ounces.
For Costco 2-Day orders of $75 or more, there is no separate delivery fee; orders placed by noon local time have a two-business-day delivery estimate, and Costco says delivery timing can extend and is not guaranteed. Costco says local warehouse availability and prices may vary.
This is the strongest fit for someone who wants several individually wrapped pastries and can use the full dozen. The per-piece price makes the box easy to budget as a week of snacks or to share. The $75 threshold suits shoppers who already plan a Costco 2-Day order; adding products solely to reach it raises the checkout total.
2. Smaller soft-pastry trial: 7Days Mini Chocolate Croissants
SnackWorks lists 7Days Soft Baked Mini Croissants with Chocolate Filling in a 6.53-ounce package, the smallest package by total weight among the pastry formats here. Its product label begins with wheat flour, palm oil, sugar, water and cocoa, which identifies a sweet chocolate-filled option for someone choosing a compact pack.
A currently priced local alternative is Kroger’s Private Selection Chocolate Croissants: the listing gives four croissants, 12 ounces total, for $5.99, or 50 cents per ounce. At about $1.50 per pastry, the four-pack suits a shopper near the listed Rolla locker pickup who wants a known checkout price for a small quantity.
The Kroger listing shows pickup at Rolla and marks delivery unavailable. Its pastry is frozen and the listed preparation is to thaw, rise and bake, so the low package total comes with planned preparation rather than a ready-to-eat snack.
The two smaller packs answer different needs. The 7Days mini-croissant label gives a 6.53-ounce package, while Kroger’s frozen four-pack gives a published price, count and weight; the 12-ounce Kroger pack works out to 3 ounces per pastry. Compare the Kroger price per ounce with another package’s price per ounce, and keep the listed Rolla pickup condition in the decision.
Kroger’s product details describe unbleached enriched flour, butter and semisweet chocolate filling. The listing identifies wheat, eggs, soy and milk as allergens and says the product may contain pecan and almond, useful details for households checking the ingredient profile.
Choose the 7Days mini package when a 6.53-ounce chocolate-filled soft-baked format is the priority. Choose Kroger’s four-pack when its $5.99 listing and Rolla pickup work for you and you want four frozen pastries to bake; its price per piece is about $1.50 before any trip cost.
How the pastry format changes the snack occasion
A package that weighs less can still be a poor buy if its preparation or quantity does not fit the day. The SnackWorks 7Days minis are a small chocolate-filled soft-baked pack, while Kroger’s four chocolate croissants are frozen pastries that the retailer says to thaw, rise and bake. That makes SnackWorks the portable-format comparison and Kroger a planned breakfast or at-home treat.
A larger ready-to-eat chocolate alternative also appears in Costco Business Center’s 7Days Chocolate Croissant listing: 12 individually wrapped, soft-baked pastries, each 2.65 ounces (75 g), described as ready to eat. The listing says its displayed prices are delivered prices. This format falls between Kroger’s four frozen pastries and L’Atelier K’s 90-piece case, so it can suit someone seeking chocolate filling with separate portions and no baking step.
3. Korean salted-butter alternative: Nongshim Ppang BuJang Salted Butter Roll
The Amazon listing for Nongshim’s Ppang BuJang Salted Butter Roll identifies one 55 g bag as one serving and lists 280 calories per bag. The Nutrition Facts panel gives 320 mg of sodium and 9 g of added sugar per serving. That makes the serving size concrete for a one-bag snack comparison, even though the format differs from a pastry multipack.
Nongshim describes Ppang BuJang Salted Butter Roll as a salted-bread snack with a rich, savory flavor from real butter and salt. The 55 g bag weighs about 1.94 ounces, so its cost per bag is useful for budgeting a single snack, while cost per ounce helps compare the amount with larger soft-pastry packages. It suits shoppers who want a buttery, salty profile in a compact bag; the chocolate-filled croissants suit a sweet-pastry craving.
The Amazon listing for Ppang BuJang Salted Butter Roll provides the purchase link. Ppang BuJang belongs in the comparison when a compact, savory salted-butter snack suits the craving; the retailer’s live offer and the shopper’s delivery terms determine its checkout cost.
4. Chocolate pastry for a group: L’Atelier K’s case of 15 packs
L’Atelier K’s Chocolate Croissant listing names six pieces per pack and a box of 15 packs. That makes 90 pastries in the full case.
A 90-piece case suits an office, gathering or household that already expects to share chocolate croissants. Its unit cost depends on the case total, so compare the seller’s quote and fulfillment cost with the smaller packages before choosing it for a group.
For a single household, four Kroger pastries or one 12-piece Costco vanilla box are easier quantities to plan than 90 pieces. For a catered breakfast or large gathering, the L’Atelier case offers the largest confirmed count among the named options.
