Pastry Vendor (42259504565)
Pastry refers to a variety of doughs (often enriched with fat or eggs), as well as the sweet and savoury baked goods made from them. The dough may be accordingly called pastry dough for clarity. Sweetened pastries are often described as '' baker's confectionery''. Common pastry dishes include pies, tarts, quiches, croissants, and turnovers. The French word pâtisserie is also used in English (with or without the accent) for many of the same foods, as well as the set of techniques used to make them. Originally, the French word referred to anything, such as a meat pie, made in dough (''paste'', later ''pâte'') and not typically a luxurious or sweet product. This meaning still persisted in the nineteenth century, though by then the term more often referred to the sweet and often ornate confections implied today. Definitions The precise definition of the term pastry varies based on location and culture. Common doughs used to make pastries include filo dough, puff pastry, chou ...

Invented by Huntley & Palmers in 1831, they are commonly found in households in United Kingdom, Republic of Ireland, Ireland, and Commonwealth of Nations, Commonwealth countries, but also in continental Europe and French Canada. Popularity in the United States and English Canada spread later in the 20th century. Over 60% of UK households own a biscuit tin. Because of their attractive appearance, biscuit tins have often been used by charities and by some visitor attractions as fundraising devices since many customers will happily pay more for a tin of biscuits than it is worth.
