Here is a quick guide to the essential french pastries that any bakery needs to have.

Croissants are a layered, flaky, French pastry. The shape in which they curl this delicate item is where its namesake comes from.

Baguettes are a staple french bread. These crusty loaves are made of flour, water, yeast, and salt. Different bakers each have their own ratios, making this simple yet delicious loaf a must-have.

French Macaron is an almond-flavored sweet meringue-based confection that can sometimes take days to make. The key to a good Macaron is giving them the proper time to dry so that a “foot” is formed. Macarons are made from almond meal, egg whites, and sugar. The typical filling is ganache, buttercream, or jam.

Kouign-Amann is a cake that has been considered the “fattiest pastry in all of Europe.” These round puff-pastry cakes’ strict recipe requires a ratio of 40% dough, 30% butter, and 30% sugar.
