  21. Place the wrapped pastry embryos face up in the baking pan and press lightly to make the surface flat. Stamp the surface with food coloring. After the oven is preheated, add the pastry embryos.

Turn over and cover with tin foil, continue baking for 5 minutes. Total time spent is 25 minutes. You can fine-tune the time and temperature according to your own oven (END)
