Temu shopper horrified after trendy ‘croissant lamp’ turns out to be real pastry: ‘Look at the crumbs’

An Aussie woman said she was gifted a “croissant lamp” from Temu by her sisters, but came home one day to find it covered in ants. 

The woman, @froginahatgirl, said she immediately started investigating, only to discover that the lamp was, in fact, a real croissant. 

“It’s literally f–king food”

“So I got this Temu lamp as a gift from my sisters, and I had it in my room, and I came home from work after the hot day and there was like hundreds of ants underneath it,” she explained in the clip.

Wondering whether or not it was a real croissant that had been covered in resin, she said, “I just poked a bigger hole and it, like, low-key looks like a f–ing croissant under there.”

She then breaks the lamp in half on camera to reveal flaky layers inside, suggesting that it’s a real baked good, not a lamp shade.

“That looks like a f–ing croissant,” she exclaimed.

“Are you actually joking me? That looks like f–ing pastry. Look at the crumbs. What the actual f–k Temu?”

To confirm her theory, she decided to do what any good detective would do and… take a bite out of the lamp.

“I guess there’s one way to truly know,” she said before breaking off a piece and having a small nibble.

“It’s literally f–ing food,” she then declared. 

“A light snack”

After the clip gained over 11 million views, people lost it in the comments.

“Just a light snack,” one punny user wrote. 

“Y’all say you want authentic but then get pissed off when you get authentic croissants lmao,” a second pointed out. 

“Why is nobody concerned about the BITE she took from it???” another asked.

But someone else said: “The taste test was the most Aussie thing ever.”

And another person chimed in: “Kind of makes you wonder about the squirrel lamp they’ve got on there…”
