Selected
bien doré
I don't think it would be at all usual to describe the colour literally as any form of brown; we normally just describe degrees of browning, such as 'lightly browned', etc. So I think this would probably be the best and most idiomatic way to describe 'well browned'.

: The paucity of Google hits rather suggests this isn't the commonest expression in widespread use.

Discussion
2° I think 'bottom' here really means 'base' — i.e. the colour will be that of the top of the base.
However, it is not inconceivable that one might simply lift one up to see what colour its bottom is — presumably this is some kind of pastry, and hence it wouldn't be a disaster to open the oven door towards the end of the cooking time.
brown' many times before ...
2. Usually, we check the topping. How do you check the bottom?
