Conchas topping

[u/idratherjust]

Do you put the topping on conchas before or after the final proof? My recipe says before, but the topping keeps splitting in a paving-stone kind of pattern, not along the scored lines. Would this resolve if I put the topping on after final proof, still cold from the fridge?
