Bake straight from the fridge.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Use cold puff pastry<em>\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>\u2013 When putting the braid together, make sure to use cold puff pastry. It\u2019s much easier to work with. Warm puff pastry will be difficult to fold properly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Follow the photos<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 To cut and assemble the pastry braid, I suggest you follow the photos above.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Serve hot or warm<\/strong> &#8211; It can be eaten hot or at room temperature.
