Cakes and pastries are popular baked goods enjoyed around the world for their sweetness, texture, and versatility. Cakes, typically made from flour, sugar, eggs, and butter, come in various forms, from simple sponge cakes to elaborate layered cakes with frosting and fillings. Pastries, on the other hand, are often flaky and buttery, made with dough that may include fillings like cream, fruit, or chocolate. Classics such as croissants, Danish pastries, and éclairs are loved for their rich flavors and delicate textures.

Both cakes and pastries are often served at celebrations or as a treat with coffee or tea. They can be customized with various ingredients, making them adaptable to different tastes and dietary needs. While they are indulgent, moderation is key to enjoying these delicious treats as part of a balanced diet. Cakes and pastries are a delightful way to bring sweetness to any occasion.
