Danish pastry was brought to Denmark by Austrian bakers who were hired to replace Danish bakers during a strike. Danish bakers wished to be paid in money rather than bed and board. The Austrian's left behind their methods of rolling butter between the layers then letting it rest before shaping and baking. Danish bakers, who had left the country to travel the world, brought their knowledge with them where it has since become a favourite all over the world. Our spelt organic pastry comes in a wide variety of styles and flavours to suit and occasion. Nothing compares with fresh from the oven Danish pastry, layers upon layers of flaky buttery crust, filled with delicious fruit and custard.
