Pastries

Pastries are where baking gets a little more elegant. Master a foundational sweet dough for endless pastry projects, take on classic croissants for a weekend lamination challenge, or whip up a tray of buttery cheese danish for brunch. These pastry recipes cover everything from buttery laminated doughs to delicate cream-filled choux, all broken down step by step so you can pull off bakery-quality results at home.

Hi, I'm Liz! I'm a cake artist and recipe developer, and I won Netflix's Is It Cake? Holiday 2 with a hyperrealistic Santa. I write foolproof recipes that explain why things work, not just how.

I also teach full-length cake tutorials, including sculpted cakes, at Sugar Geek University.
