Tompouce
A tompoes or tompouce is a pastry in the Netherlands and Belgium. It is the local variety of the mille-feuille or Napoleon, introduced by an Amsterdam pastry baker and named after Admiraal Tom Pouce, the stage name of the Frisian dwarf Jan Hannema. Customs In the Netherlands, the tompoes is iconic, and the market allows little variation in form, size, and colour. It must be rectangular, with two layers of puff pastry, similar to the cream slice in the United Kingdom. The icing is smooth and pink, or occasionally white. For many years, however, the top layer has been orange on Koningsdag (King's Day), and a few days before. It may also be orange-coloured when the national football team plays in large international tournaments; this dates from about 1990. The filling is invariably sweet, yellow pastry cream. Tompouces are sometimes topped with whipped cream. Variations with different fillings or with jam are comparatively rare and are not called tompoes. Several variations exis ...

Crompouce
A crompouce is a mixture between a croissant and a tompouce that became a hit on social media platforms in 2023, in addition to being registered as a brand name. Croissant dough is used instead of puff pastry. The croissant is cut open and filled with pastry cream and topped with a layer of pink icing. The disadvantage of croissant dough, however, is that the dough is softer, making the cream more likely to leak through. History The delicacy in its current form and under the name crompouce was created by Utrecht-based Bammetje Bakery in 2020. After the crompouce by Katwijk-based Bakker van Maanen became a craze on social media platform TikTok in 2023, bakeries across the Netherlands started selling the product. The hype of the crompouce was succeeded by that of the ''sûkerpoes'' from Friesland: two slices of sugar bread, with cream in between and the top slice of bread dipped in pink chocolate.

The three-tine fork has a larger, flattened and beveled tine on the side while the four-tine fork has the first and second tine connected or bridged together and beveled. Pastry forks range in size from (in English pastry fork sets) to as serving pieces in silverware (sterling and silver plate) place settings. In many fine place settings, the pastry fork and pie fork may be two separate forks as well. It is typically designed so that it can be used with the right hand, while the left hand holds the plate. It therefore has the left side widened to be used like a knife to cut the food when pressed down on the plate. Left-handed pastry forks have the right side widened instead. Anna M. Mangin was awarded a patent on March 1, 1892, for a pastry fork for mixing pastry dough. See also * Cheese knife * Knork * Spork A spor ...
