History, tradition and origin
Baking fruit in pastry came to North America with English and Dutch settlers, and apple pie became a national symbol. Pecan pie uses a nut native to the southern United States. Dense baked cheesecake made with cream cheese is linked to New York delis of the early 1900s. Glazed fruit tarts and lemon tarts are staples of the French pastry shop.
Food economy and industry
Pie sales peak sharply at Thanksgiving in the United States. Washington State grows most American apples, and Georgia and Texas lead in pecans. Cream cheese is an American invention of the 1870s and is now a global ingredient. Butter and flour prices largely set the cost of pastry.
