Defrosting
tip
Press your thumb into
the center of the dough.
If it feels soft, you know
it’s thawed enough.
Baking tips
The day before baking, you can arrange the products on a
rack or tray in the refrigerator. Remember to cover them
well with plastic wrap in order to prevent them from drying
out.
Since baking temperatures can vary from oven to oven, the
specified baking temperature we provide is meant to be used
as a guideline.
Make sure the oven is properly preheated. While preheating,
set the oven 77°F higher than the specified baking temperature. Because opening the oven causes the temperature
to drop, preheating to a higher temperature will ensure the
products still achieve a nice colour if there is a considerable
difference between the specified baking temperature and
your oven temperature.
Lower the oven temperature if the products brown too
much, but are still too wet inside. Shorten the baking time
if they brown too much and are dry inside.
The baking times and temperatures provided are meant to be used as a guideline only, since these may vary per oven type/brand.
6
croissants
Add steam at the beginning of the baking process.
This gives you a crispier, puffier finish. Allow the steam to
escape 5 minutes before baking to ensure that the products
are not fully baked.
Ready to bake
1
Use parchment paper. Leave enough
space between products, so they have
plenty of room to defrost.
2
Brush each product with egg yolk before
placing them in the oven. This will give
your final products a shiny golden finish.
3
Bake the products in the oven and let
them cool on the baking tray.
4
Add your own twist! Once baked, add
your own toppings to the finished
products to taste.
Being well-prepared is half the job. To achieve perfectly-risen and goldenbaked products, just follow these simple steps.

BelPastry Danishes
Don’t let the name fool you! These sweet, delicious pastries were
originally a beloved regional Viennese delicacy, but at some point achieved
popularity throughout Scandinavia, and especially in Denmark.
Now they’re here for you to enjoy.
BelPastry’s Danish pastry products were perfected by a Danish master baker. Our products are
based on his authentic recipe, to which we’ve added our own pinch of passion and touch of
craftsmanship during our production process. Just further proof that, at BelPastry, we believe
in respecting original recipes and taking special care with how we produce them.
Only the best ingredients
In order to create our Danishes, we incorporate 24 layers of pure Danish margarine
throughout the pastry dough. The combination of margarine with multiple pastry layers
Baking tips
Do not allow the Danishes to thaw. Just take them from the freezer
to the oven.
Do not place more than 10 large pastries (between 3.00 Oz and
3.53 Oz) on a 60 x 40 cm baking tray.
gives our Danishes a crunchy, airy and crisp texture, infusing them with melt-in-the-mouth
goodness.
You can safely fit 20 mini-sized pastries on a tray of the same size.
A variety of flavor sensations
Each retail market has its top best sellers. At BelPastry, we offer the most popular flavors in
our wide selection - and more! You can choose from a variety of fruit or other fillings, such as
the popular Maple Pecan Danish; a braid-shaped pastry with a maple syrup filling, topped with

out of the oven.

Fast and easy
What also makes these pastries so popular is just how quick they are to prepare. You don’t
