National Cherry Turnover Day is observed worldwide every August 28. This day celebrates the delicious pastry known as cherry turnovers, which are typically made with puff pastry filled with a sweet cherry mixture. To observe the occasion, many people indulge in these pastries, either by purchasing them from bakeries or by baking them at home. A common recipe involves thawing frozen puff pastry, mixing frozen cherries with flour, sugar, and lemon juice, and then assembling the turnovers before baking them until golden. Cherry turnovers are a popular choice among sweet pastries and can be enjoyed for breakfast or as a dessert.
