Aimed at professional patissiers wishing to expand their repertoire as well as at-home parents who might need creative baking projects to keep kids busy during the summer months, the latest guide on Shelley’s Cape Cook website covers various types of pies and pastries, including danishes, croissants, brioche rolls, buns, and donuts.

The history of the pie can be traced back to the time of the ancient Greeks and its global popularity as a savory and sweet treat has remained constant for centuries, explains Shelley. Because pies and other types of pastries are versatile and can be incorporated into any meal, the Cape Cook guide allows pastry chefs to experiment with options that go beyond conventional brunch and dessert.
