Turned my golden retriever into a croissant last week

I used to just type 'dog' into Midjourney and get boring realistic pictures. Then I tried combining 'golden retriever' with 'freshly baked croissant' and it came out looking like a fluffy pastry with paws. Took me like 6 tries to get the texture right without it being creepy. Has anyone else had a mashup come out way better than you expected?

freshly baked croissant" is a bit redundant since croissants are always baked

yeah but i gotta disagree with you there @the_tessa. a croissant from a bag at the grocery store is technically baked, sure, but calling it "freshly baked" is a whole different thing. it means it came out of the oven that day, maybe even an hour ago, not two days ago from a factory. the word "freshly" is doing real work there, it tells you it's not just any baked croissant, it's one that still has that heat and flaky texture. you can have a baked croissant that's stale and rubbery, but a freshly baked one is almost a different food entirely. so it's not really redundant, it's just specifying the good kind.
