To prepare these toaster pastries, simply place one or two into a standard toaster. Toast them on a low to medium setting until they are warmed through and the frosting has softened slightly. Be careful not to over-toast, as this can make the pastry too crisp or burn the frosting. They can also be heated in a toaster oven or microwave for a few seconds, though toasting is the most common method for achieving a desirable texture. Serve them warm for the best experience.

How to keep the rest

Ensure the original packaging is resealed tightly or transferred to an airtight container to maintain freshness and prevent them from drying out. Avoid storing them in direct sunlight or humid environments.
