There is no single Australian stage: each city has its own, worked out from its own cafes with the same rules. This is the stage most of the cities share (Sydney, Melbourne, Gold Coast, Perth, Brisbane, Adelaide, Hobart); every city's own stage is in City by city.
Emerging: Fewer than 5 Sydney cafes have it, or the first cafe post or review we have is under 120 days old, or creators are posting it before any cafe has it. It also covers anything on a small share of cafes that is holding steady.

Biggest in Sydney, on 1.5% of its cafes in the last 90 days.
Each card counts the city's cafes with a post, a customer review or a current menu naming it in the last 90 days. Its share is of that city's own cafes, so a smaller city can be ahead.
We don't read Perth, Adelaide, Canberra and Hobart cafes' own posts yet, so their figures come from Google reviews and menus only.
“Where to get one” lists a different set: cafes with it on a current menu or in a cafe's or creator's post, whenever it was. That is why a city's count there is not the same.

Each bar is how many cities had a cafe post or review of it that month; Nov 2026 is not over yet, so its bar is so far.
Each city appears in the month of its earliest post or review in our data and grows as more of its suburbs have it. Its size is its cafes so far, never added to another city's.

“Pistachio croissant is on 80 cafe menus across 6 Australian cities, and furthest ahead in Sydney (1.5% of its cafes).”
A croissant filled or topped with pistachio cream and crushed pistachios. The Froth has seen it at cafes in 8 Australian cities (Sydney, Melbourne, Gold Coast, Perth, Brisbane, Adelaide, Canberra and Hobart) as of 13 Nov 2026.
It is on 80 cafe menus across 6 cities right now, including RnK Espresso Marsfield in Marsfield, Sydney, Buno Coffee Roasters and Cafe in West End, Brisbane, Fala Fels in Mermaid Waters, Gold Coast and Gather: Food, coffee & Co in Berwick, Melbourne. The "Where to get one" list on this page has every menu, city by city, with the price where the menu gives one and directions. Menus change, so check with the cafe before you go.
The average is $8.82, from 53 cafe menus in 4 cities as of 14 Nov 2026. Most charge between $7 and $11; the lowest we have seen is $5 and the highest $13.50. Each city's own average is on its page.
Of the cities The Froth reads, Sydney has it on the biggest share of cafes: 1.5% of Sydney cafes in the last 90 days, against 1.4% in Melbourne and 1.3% in Gold Coast. Each city's share is of its own cafes, so a smaller city can be ahead.
There is no single Australian stage: each city has its own, from its own cafes. The Froth rates it Emerging in Sydney, Melbourne, Gold Coast, Perth, Brisbane, Adelaide and Hobart; Fading in Canberra as of 13 Nov 2026.
Australian cafes also sell pistachio croissant as "croissant with pistachio". The Froth counts every one of these names as the same trend.
The earliest cafe post or customer review about pistachio croissant that The Froth has, in any city we read, is from 11 Dec 2023. We only see what we collect, so that is when we first saw it, not when it started: it may have been sold earlier, here or elsewhere.
Every city is counted on its own, with the same rules: a cafe counts for pistachio croissant from the first public post or customer review we found about it, and while it is on the cafe's current menu. A city's share is of its own cafes we see well (an Instagram post or a current menu in the same 90 days, a chain counting once), and its change compares the same cafes in the last 90 days with the 90 before. Cities' cafe figures are never added together, because we read some cities' posts and others only from reviews and menus. Searches are monthly search demand across Australia with all of a trend's names added up. The full method is on our "How we track cafe trends" page.
