Kouign amann translates to "butter cake" in Breton, the language of Brittany where this cult favorite pastry originates. Starter Bakery's Seasonal Kouign Amann is true to its heritage, rich with layers of delicate pastry, salted butter, and sugar. Each bite will bring you golden caramelized outer crust, buttery pastry, and a sweet dusting of sugar.
