Why is it said that eclair paste the only dough cooked baked?

It's not entirely accurate to say that éclair paste is the *only* dough cooked baked. While éclair paste is traditionally baked, there are other doughs that are also baked.

Here's why the statement might be misleading:

* Éclair paste is a specific type of dough: It's made with a high proportion of butter and eggs, which creates a light and airy texture when baked.

* Other pastries are baked: Many pastries and breads are made with doughs that are baked, such as croissants, brioche, bread, pizza dough, and more.

* Some doughs are both baked and fried: Choux pastry (the base for éclairs, cream puffs, and other pastries) can be baked or fried, depending on the desired texture and recipe.

So, while éclair paste is typically baked, it's not the only dough baked. Many other doughs are also baked to create a variety of delicious pastries and breads.
