Pastries
Description
Perfectly pairs with tea and coffee. These pastries are great because the filling can be absolutely anything: nut cream, chocolate, berries, or fruits. The main highlight of these pastries is their shape. As for the size, it's entirely up to you—you can decide how big your pastries will be. I highly recommend noting this preparation method. Can be served with tea or coffee.
