⭐ Tips for Best Results

  • Don’t overfill—this prevents leaks and uneven baking
  • Use minimal sauce to avoid soggy pastry
  • Let pastry soften slightly before rolling to prevent cracking
  • Bake in a fully preheated oven for best puff and texture
  • Space rolls evenly on the tray for even cooking
