SHS Teacher CREAM PUFF
A cream puff, or profiterole or
chou à la crème is a filled French choux pastry ball with a typically sweet and moist filling of whipped cream, custard, pastry cream, or ice cream. The puffs may be decorated or left plain or garnished with chocolate sauce, caramel, or a dusting of powdered sugar. PUFF PASTRY
Puff pastry, also known as pâte
feuilletée, is a flaky light pastry made from a laminated dough composed of dough and butter or other solid fat. The butter is put inside the dough, making a paton which is repeatedly folded and rolled out before baking DANISH PASTRY
A Danish pastry, sometimes
shortened to just Danish, is a multilayered, laminated sweet pastry in the viennoiserie tradition. The concept was brought to Denmark by Austrian bakers, and has since developed into a Danish specialty. FRENCH PASTRIES
A rich pastry, filled with custard
or fruit. PIE AND TART
A pie is a sweet or savory dish
with a crust and a filling. A tart is a sweet or savory dish with shallow sides and only a bottom crust. Tart crusts are usually made from pastry dough: traditionally flour, unsalted butter, cold water, and sometimes sugar. CROISSANT
A croissant is a buttery, flaky,
viennoiserie pastry of Austrian and French origin, named for its historical crescent shape. Croissants and other viennoiserie are made of a layered yeast-leavened dough.
