A surge in global butter prices is affecting bakeries and kitchens across the globe, with iconic items like croissants and pains au chocolat facing price hikes. Key suppliers are struggling with historical low stockpiles, and while demand from Asia rises, production is declining, leading to increased costs for consumers. Bakeries like Paris's Mamiche and Hong Kong's Bakehouse are feeling the squeeze, having to switch suppliers and absorb higher costs. This trend is expected to continue as dairy challenges persist and global demands shift.
