Baking Tips for Star Results Each Time

Thaw It Right

Thaw Pennant Puff Pastry in the refrigerator overnight or for 30 minutes at room temperature. Keep it chilled while working to preserve those delicate layers.

 Keep Fillings Balanced

For the best results, use rich yet not too wet fillings to avoid sogginess. Opt for thicker, well-balanced fillings that complement the pastry’s delicate, flaky texture, be it creamy, fruit-based, or savory. Strive for contrast in flavors: rich with fresh, sweet with tart, or deep and delicious with a touch of brightness. 

Bake It Beautiful

Always preheat your oven to ensure your puff pastry achieves golden, flaky perfection. For smaller creations (2–3 oz.), bake at 375°F–400°F for 20–25 minutes, or until beautifully golden and puffed. For larger items, reduce the temperature slightly and bake longer, allowing the layers to rise without risk of burning fully. Proper baking is key to letting the pastry shine as the star of your dish.
