It originated from Japan!
While many thought that the Fortune Cookie originated from China or Chinese culture, its origins can actually be traced back to confectionary shops in Kyoto as far back as 1870! They used to be called "tsujiura senbei" (辻占煎餅), or "fortune rice crackers"! They were darker, larger and savoury instead of the lightly coloured sweet cookie we know today!

Where are the Croissants originally from?
It originated from France!
Across various accounts of croissant history, most sources agree that it originates from Austria as the kipferl. Made from a yeasted wheat dough, the kipferl is a baked bread roll common in Central Europe. Records state that the kipferl has been around as early as the 13th century, but many believe it may be even older.
(Kipferi for reference)
HOWEVER, the Croissant is distinctly different from the kipferi because of how they are made. The kipferi is made using "brioche dough" while the croissant is made using "laminated yeast dough".

Where is the German Chocolate Cake originally from?
It originated from Dallas, Texas in America!
Contrary to what people would believe, German Chocolate Cake was named after baker Samuel German from the 1850s! The lore goes even deeper, German developed a sweeter version of "Baker's Chocolate" which was named after its founder James Baker instead of the occupation it was made for. Baker would later go on to name the chocolate German made "German's Sweet Chocolate".
Dallas resident Mrs. George Clay will go on to be the first person to publish the first known recipe of "German Chocolate Cake" because she made it using the chocolate German developed!
