  • About
Individual pastries, created from pastry doughs or batters with fillings, may be constructed as single portions or as a larger item, such as a cake, which is individually portioned and garnished. Individual pastries encompass a wide variety of baked goods, from very refined to rustic. Depending on the type of pastry, it may be appropriate for sale in a retail bakeshop, for service during breakfast or brunch, with coffee or tea, at receptions, or on a dessert menu.
