Pastry Temple is a bold, inviting pastry cookbook built around what its author calls the three pillars of pastry: brioche, puff pastry, and croissant. With these foundations in place, the book opens the door to more than 30 sweet and savoury recipes designed to help confident home bakers level up their skills.
Written by Christina Wood, a self taught baker and the founder of Temple Pastries, the book breaks down techniques that can feel intimidating into clear, manageable steps. Detailed timelines, process photos, and straightforward explanations make it easier to plan a baking day and understand what’s happening at every stage, without stripping away the pleasure of the work.
The recipes lean inventive and flavour forward, moving well beyond the expected. Savoury bakes include Chinese five spice kouign amann, gochujang babka, and cheesy blistered tomato croissants, while the sweet side features ideas like poached quince tarte Tatin, crème brûlée donuts, and sumac roasted strawberry cheesecake croissants. Nothing is overly sweet, and everything feels thoughtfully composed.
Designed for bakers who already feel comfortable in the kitchen and are ready for a new challenge, Pastry Temple is both instructional and inspiring, a cookbook that encourages patience, practice, and a deep appreciation for the craft of pastry.
