Fall and winter are the prime “comfort food seasons” for diners everywhere, and there’s often nothing more comforting and crave-worthy than items made with puff pastry and pie dough. Flaky, soft, layers of delicious melt-in-your-mouth dough makes both sweet and savory items absolutely irresistible.
Using puff pastry and pie dough also lets your creativity shine! The same dough can be transformed for different applications across the menu delighting your diners with items they would never suspect came from the same product. Plus, with such versatile ingredients, you can do more with less, thereby optimizing storage, minimizing waste and increasing revenue.
