Have you made this before? Can it be made using the Large Bar Pan? (and maybe the small bar pan for the stars) Do you think there would be enough time to bake the pastry at an interactive show? or would you suggest making that ahead of time at home?

I have a show on Saturday, Stars and Stripe theme, so I was thinking of doing either this recipe or the Stars and Stripes Dessert Pizza. :chef:
 
I thought it was made in the Large Bar Pan?

I think I've always used the Large Bar Pan....although it's been a couple years since I made it...my thinking might be wrong.:o

It calls for the Rectangle Stone, and rolling the pastry sheet into a 13x10 rectangle.
