About this dish
A bear claw is a sweet pastry originating in the United States during the mid-1910s. The name bear claw as used for a pastry is first attested in a 1914 newspaper ad for the Geibel German Bakery in Sacramento, California. In Denmark, a bear claw is referred to as a kam and in Germany as Kamm. France also has an alternate version of that pastry: patte d'ours (meaning bear paw), created in 1982 in the Alps.
