To prepare, simply place the pastry in a toaster on a low setting. Alternatively, they can be heated in a toaster oven or a conventional oven for a few minutes until warm and slightly crisp. Microwaving is also an option, though it can result in a softer texture. Many people enjoy them as is, while others might pair them with a glass of milk or a cup of coffee. The warming process enhances the flavor of the strawberry filling and the flakiness of the pastry.
