This illustration features Cherry Pie, a dessert made with sweet or tart cherries baked inside a pastry crust and associated with traditional American baking.
Cherry strudel is a pastry made with thin layers of stretched dough wrapped around a sweet cherry filling.
Popular across Central Europe, especially in Austria and neighboring countries, cherry strudel evolved from the famous Viennese strudel tradition. Its origins can be traced back to the influence of Ottoman pastries introduced to the Austro-Hungarian Empire during the 17th century.
