FAQS

  1. Can I use homemade puff pastry instead of store-bought?

    Yes, you can use homemade puff pastry if you prefer. Just ensure it is rolled out evenly before using.

  2. Can I make these bites ahead of time?

    These bites are best served fresh, but you can prepare the puff pastry with cinnamon sugar in advance and bake them just before serving.

  3. What other dipping sauces can I use?

    You can use a variety of dipping sauces like vanilla glaze, fruit compote, or even a cream cheese frosting.

  4. Can I adjust the sweetness level?

    Yes, you can reduce the amount of sugar in the cinnamon sugar mixture if you prefer a less sweet treat.

  5. Can I freeze these bites?
