To prepare, simply place one or two pastries into a toaster slot. Toast on a low to medium setting until the pastry is warmed through and the frosting is slightly softened. Be careful not to over-toast, as this can make the pastry too hard or burn the frosting. They can also be eaten straight from the package without toasting, offering a softer texture.
