[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am shocked people think Asian pastries are too sweet! Is this a joke? American desserts and pastries are so sweet they are mostly inedible for anyone over 10. [/quote] Asia also encompasses South Asia and outside the US people commonly think of India as well, and that may be the place with the sweetest pastries in the world. Otherwise agree that East Asian desserts are significantly less sweet than American desserts.[/quote] It doesn't make any sense in this context though; South Asia doesn't really have a huge bread/baking culture, it's a relatively new phenomenon. I don't know why anyone would say that Asian pastries are too sweet, when they eat American buttercream. [/quote]
