The coffee shop pastry case is full of tempting brioche buns, oversized muffins, donuts, and coffee cake slices that somehow cost as much as a full meal.

These homemade versions come out softer, richer, and still slightly warm from the oven, with real flavors and textures most cafés simply cannot match.
