  • In professional settings, a person who does 베이킹 is often called a 파티시에, borrowed from the French word 'pâtissier' rather than the English word 'baker'.
  • In a professional culinary context, you might hear the term 제과, which specifically refers to the art of making confectionery and pastries as opposed to 제빵, which focuses on bread.
  • While 베이킹 is used for Western cakes and cookies, the traditional Korean process of steaming buns or rice cakes is called 찌기, which is conceptually different from baking.
