Pastry flour (as well as cake flour) is a bit finer and less dense, and is made only from soft wheat. This gives it a smoother, softer texture and a more pale, lighter coloring. It also has less protein, more like 8-10%. Pastry flour likewise contains less gluten than all-purpose or traditional wheat flour.
