Take & Bake Instructions
Cinnamon Rolls
It’s time to bake!!
Step 1: 12-24 hours before you are ready to bake, remove the tray from the freezer and place in the fridge to thaw.
Step 2: 1.5-2 hours before you are ready to bake, remove the tray from the fridge and set on counter to proof (keeping the lid on). It is ideal for the room temperature to be around 70-76 degrees. You are looking for the croissants to double in size. (See photos) The time on this will vary depending on room temp. The warmer the environment, the quicker they will proof.
Step 3: Pre heat your oven to 400 degrees. Place your oven shelf in the middle of the oven.
Step 4: Once the cinnamon rolls are ready, remove the plastic lid and place the tray in the oven. Bake at 400 degrees for 15-18 minutes, until golden brown.
Step 5: Once you have removed the rolls from the oven, immediately top with the frosting, allow the frosting to melt into the roll a bit and then spread across the rolls! Use as much or as little frosting as desired!!
Enjoy warm or cooled.
*Cinnamon rolls will keep for 1-2 days covered at room temp.

Croissants, Pain Au Chocolate and Ham and Cheese
It’s time to bake!!
Step 1: 12-24 hours before you are ready to bake, remove the tray from the freezer and place in the fridge to thaw.
Step 2: 1.5-2 hours before you are ready to bake, remove the tray from the fridge and set on counter to proof (keeping the lid on). It is ideal for the room temperature to be around 70-76 degrees. You are looking for the croissants to double in size. The time on this will vary depending on room temp. The warmer the environment, the quicker they will proof.
Step 3: At some point while you are waiting for your croissants to proof, pre heat your oven to 425 degrees. Place your oven shelf in the middle of the oven. Also, you can go ahead prepare an egg wash by simply beating one egg in a small bowl, set aside.
Step 4: Once the croissants are ready to bake, remove the plastic tray lid and lightly brush the tops of the croissants with egg wash.
Step 5: Place the tray (without the lid) in the oven and bake at 425 degrees for 8 minutes. Once the first 8 minutes is up, leaving the tray in the oven, reduce the oven temp to 400 degrees and bake for an additional 15 minutes.
Step 6: When finished, they should be a nice golden brown! Once the croissants are baked, remove from oven and allow to cool before eating. If you can make it that long!
Enjoy!!
*Croissants will be good covered at room temp for 1-2 days.
