If a pastry contains rum, it might be kosher but it won't be hallal. If a butter-based pastry contains beef (for example, "pigs in a blanket" made with beef hot dogs), it could be hallel, but it is not kosher. (I say "could be" because both kosher and hallal certification are also concerned with the implements and oven used for baking, and with the provenance of the ingredients.)
