well-baked

Done all through

Well-baked describes food, especially bread or pastry, that has been baked thoroughly—cooked long enough to develop proper texture, color, and flavor: a well-baked loaf with a golden crust.

The term implies successful execution rather than overbaking.

Figuratively, a well-baked plan or idea is fully developed and thought through.
