When it comes to the world of pastries, there is an endless variety available. At the heart, a pastry is anything made with flour, water, and shortening, but creativity takes over from there. There are savory and sweet pastries, pastries best suited for breakfast, and others that carry themselves as a dessert. Some are fruity, others are chocolate-based. But all pastries have one thing in common: they require the talents of a pastry chef to make them truly phenomenal.
