of course!. there are mamy kinds!. read on!.
There's a certain conception that most people have of petit fours!. Most of us think the treats have to be small square or round cakes with a poured fondant icing and a piped decoration on top!. There's much more to it than that!. Petit four translates from French as 'small oven,' which refers to the ovens after the large items had been baked!. The heat in the oven was a lot lower after the bread or large cakes (in the case of the nobility) came out, so things like smaller cakes and cookies that needed lower temperatures could then be baked!.

In a strict sense, a petit four can be any small cookie, cake, creme puffs or tartlettes!. Even sugar coated nuts and fruits could be considered petit four, technically speaking!. According to Larousse Gastronomique, petit fours became popular during the reign of Louis XIV, the Sun King himself!.
