Thanks Stefan Yes, I would like the English term - I'll change the pairing
Steffen Walter Feb 4, 2005:
Do you also need an English term for this one? In that case, the language pair should be changed to German>English.
Non-ProZ.com Feb 4, 2005:
information I've just found this sentence on another website - maybe it will give some clues??

Flaky pastry

I think this is what they mean; pastry which you butter and fold over, roll out and repeat the process ad (in)finitum, and then egt a "flaky" pastry, rather than a solid pastry. Very popular particularly for Danish pastries.

You may even then \"GET\" a flaky pastry....

2 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "The technical term appears to be "laminated dough/ laminated pastry". I stumbled across lots of native UK/ US references as I was researching to choose between flaky and puff/ filo pastry. Seems to be the umbrella term for lots of layered types of pastry. Gave David the points as he was the first to head me in the right direction. Thanks everyone!"

puff pastry or filo pastry

puff pastry is the pastry that rises in vol-au-vents - the stuff in sheets (for Apfelstrudel etc.) is filo pastry
Peer comment(s):

agree Jeremy Amos : Is there a difference? ;-) Would have thought this more "proper" term more appropriate in the context.

agree Trudy Peters : puff pastry. Filo does not come "laminiert," you're the one who puts the layers together
