I made some of these. My dough was a mess: the butter block broke into pieces, it squeezed out of the sides of the dough, It didn't look anything like the video. But I persevered. I rolled out the final, messy product, sprinkled the sugar/salt mixture, cut it into squares and cooked them in a cupcake tin. And they were the best thing I've ever cooked. So don't worry if yours don't end up nice and pretty like the video. As long as you come close, you're going to be amazed by the result. Sure, they may not be quite as flaky as the ones the professionals made, and maybe some of the caramelized sugar gets a little darker than it should, but as long as you don't burn them, they're going to be incredible. Based on this experience and several goes at making puff pastry, I've learned an undeniable truth about baking: butter + flour = magic.

Yea it's tasty but I never get the sugar to melt, even when I bake at 230c

Helping against the mess when rolling out: Knead the dough really well, making for a "strong" dough (good gluten network). Hand kneading with the palm of your hand does a better job than the food processors. And, most important: the chilling steps between the rolling/folding tours.

@Vanita Kamble Yes, I used this recipe, and it turned out great. Sometimes, I would use a pinch of salt (rather than the amount listed in the recipe) in the sprinkling as some people do not enjoy the sweet-salty profile of the original recipe. For croissant and puff pastry doughs, I use Thomas Keller and Sebastien Rouxel's recipes in their Bouchon Bakery book.

I love how everyone on the internet is really technical about this, with drawing templates, telling you how often to fold the dough before (!) adding the butter, marking the number of folds and everything. Meanwhile, Normandy bakers just lay a slab of cool-ish butter on a flat-ish piece of bread dough, put some sugar on, fold it a couple of times and bang it in the oven.
