To prepare, simply remove the pastry from its wrapper and place it in a toaster or oven. Follow the specific heating instructions on the packaging for best results. Once heated and slightly cooled, you can apply the included icing packet. The icing is typically a simple glaze that hardens slightly as it cools, adding a sweet finish to the warm pastry.
