The Romans and the Greeks did it. So did the Egyptians and Chinese. They all made distinctive breads. They all created tantalizing desserts.
So, the ancient art of baking was passed down with every country producing its own treats. The recipes have been catalogued and distributed from generation to generation with many families claiming secret ingredients in their mixes and methods of preparing them.
This is tradition - rolls and loaves, tarts and pies, mousses and tortes.
Presentation is almost as important as taste.
