This chapter on pastry is all about Heather Miller and the pastry team at Barbuto. For fifteen years, through a great amount of hard work and glee, they have bolstered the kitchen with a stellar array of simple, delicious pastries. They have had a wonderful time creating and maintaining the rustic and special desserts, breads, and ice creams that warm the hearts of people dining at Barbuto. Heather is the cornerstone of the pastry world at Barbuto, without a doubt the most important person in my pastry universe.
