ah. That makes a lot more sense. I foolishly assumed that the sentence came from Tatoeba. It would be better if the sentence put it in the context of a pâtisserie
“Also known as elephant ears, palm leaves, and pig’s ears, palmiers are a beloved French cookie in which the sum is greater than the parts (puff pastry plus sugar)”

Agreed - it is a challenge to gather the context from one sentence, and I usually put the context in the hint so that the next time I review the sentence, I know better.
These are delicious, btw. (I live in Paris and I can’t resiste these!)
