They are designed for convenience and are ready to eat straight from the package.

These pastry snacks are typically enjoyed at room temperature, straight from their individual wrappers. For a warm treat, they can be lightly toasted in a toaster or warmed in a microwave for a few seconds. Be cautious when toasting, as the frosting can melt quickly.
