The best way to break in pointe or soft block shoes is just to wear them a lot, do lot's of rises in first, and walk in them around the house and spring on to demi-pointe once in a while, and then wear them more. If you really are struggling, you can go put a tiny bit of water on the box, or "steam" them (When taking a shower, put them in the bathroom that you're taking a shower in, and let the heat make them softer. The softer the better.) I personally prefer just wearing them a lot, but it depends on the person and what they like.
