Apple Tree Day is a celebration of one of nature’s most beloved fruits—and at Roggenart, there’s no better day to stop in and enjoy the pastries that showcase apples at their very best. From the first bake of the morning to the final golden layers coming out of the oven, today is all about honoring craftsmanship, tradition, and incredible flavor.
At Roggenart, apples take center stage in two customer favorites: our Apple Danish and our Apple Strudel. Both are made entirely from scratch using fresh apples and our signature laminated dough, a process that requires time, patience, and expert hands. This isn’t just baking—it’s a craft we’ve perfected over years.
From Scratch, Every Morning
Long before the sun comes up, our bakers are already at work. Dough is mixed, rested, and carefully laminated with butter to create delicate layers that bake into a light, flaky pastry. Apples are peeled, sliced, and gently spiced to highlight their natural sweetness while preserving their texture and flavor. We use a variety of delicious apples, chosen specifically for baking, so every bite delivers the perfect balance of sweetness, warmth, and freshness.
Apple Danish vs. Apple Strudel
Our Apple Danish is soft, buttery, and lightly crisp at the edges—perfect with a morning coffee. The Apple Strudel, on the other hand, is a celebration of layers: thin, flaky pastry wrapped around tender apples and baked until golden. Both pastries reflect what Roggenart stands for—European-inspired baking made with care, quality ingredients, and attention to detail.
