Result. Pains au chocolats are easier to roll up than croissants.

Some beautifully rolled pain au chocolat, with my hand doing a thumbs-up in front. A victorious image. Or is it? Time will tell

The instructions are inscrutable

The can has intriguing diagrams on it, of a can being wrangled in some unimaginable way. They are helpfully labelled 1 and 2.

Wot

I have followed the can’s instructions to peel it at its little arrow. Under the silver paper is more cardboard. I am baffled.

This has occurred. This always occurs.

The can has exploded. Pastry bulges out of its wounds.

@meljoann Yes, it does! Or else it stays stubbornly closed and you have to savage it with a knife.

The result of my Herculean effort. A photo of the pastries after a mere 7 minutes in the oven. Burned, bulging, pastries; chocolate exposed like its grisly internal organs after some kind of experimental operation
