Baking is the ancient art of cooking with dry heat, usually in an oven,
and creating delicious bakery products from grains, fruits, nuts, and
other ingredients. It is not only a way of making food, but also a form

flavors, shapes, and decorations for their creations. Baking can be
enjoyed by anyone, from beginners to experts, and can produce a variety
of delicious treats, such as cookies, cakes, pies, muffins, breads,
pastries, and more.
