Sell different shaped croissants according to the time of month

A patisserie or cafe which sells a crescent-shaped croissant at a certain time, which increases in plumpness every day, becoming hemispherical, then an oblate spheroid, then a sphere, then reverses the gamut and sells no croissants at all one day per month, according to the phases of the Moon. The spherical croissant has a map of the Moon embossed on it and the crescent-shaped ones have a few barely discernible crumbs whose visibility depends on the weather in nearby oceans.

You could make this a daily meal plan by adding a complementary piece of cheese to the other side of the plate.

...with appropriately-placed tiny specks of chocolate on them to mark the Apollo landing sites.

No croissants one day per month? Okay then, I'll have two of your pretzelcoatls and one rosetta-scone to go please.
