Tips for Best Results
- Keep the dough cold. When defrosting the dough, make sure it doesn’t get too warm. Otherwise, it might not rise and loose the flaky texture. If the dough got too warm at some point, you can put it in refrigerator until it firms.
- Preheat the oven. Preheat the oven ahead of time. Hot oven is crucial for puff pastry to separate the layers and make the dough light and flaky.
- Use good quality ingredients. The better quality puff pastry and chocolate you use, the better the results will be.
