The Great British Bake Along – Week Four! 💚 Turtle conchas with a coffee pastry cream filling
Lmao yes there is no reason on earth to try and stack tres leches cake!
If you’re popping back in after my last few posts, hello and welcome!!
If you’re new, I am baking along with the newest season of The Great British Baking Show this year and sharing each week’s progress!
I chose the signature challenge again this week partly because I’ve had “turtle conchas” on my baking to-do list for over a year (and also I’ve made tres leches cake multiples times and not a single part of me wanted to try and stack one…)
This was a journey… The recipe I referenced had the complete wrong ratio of wet ingredients to dry ingredients, so instead of wasting a bunch of dough and topping (and having to run to the store.. again…), I decided to just try and make it work by adding ingredients until I felt the texture was correct. Thankfully it came together and baked fairly well, although in the cut photo you can see the bread texture is *way* too dense. I don’t think they’re as sweet as they should be, but they still taste good and I filled them with a light coffee pastry cream to help! I’ll definitely be trying these again in the future so I can hopefully get them right next time, and I’m very open to tips and tricks from you all!
Wow! Beautiful level of polish and execution on these! How did you preserve the green coloring through the bake?
Love it!!! I just watched yesterday, I really loved everyone’s confusion over the taco challenge 😂
The turtles are beautiful and love the flavors!
These are so cute! I love conchas but have never actually made them.
has anyone commented on ur beautiful string of turtles yet <3 i luv what u did there
Those are awesome!!!!
I love them, they are adorable!
Does anyone have a good recipe to make conchas? I am super curious about them and they sound delicious.
I’m so in love with them I could cry. These are so adorable!
How cute
So cute! You would have gotten great reviews from the judges!
Oh wow! They are so cute! 🥰
Ohh these are adorable!
These are adorable!
These are the best! You’re so good!
Wow! These are amazing. My child’s school has a turtle in the classroom and I plan on baking “Squirt” cookies or something for their annual holiday bazar. Now I’m thinking Squirt conchas…thanks for the inspiration!
Last photo reminds me of when turtles are all on a log together, sometimes piled up on each other. Super cute.
This is ***BOMB!!!***
Kim Joy would have loved this. I remember her space turtles with little parasols
Your conchas look adorable but I feel like you made the same mistake the show did and didn’t represent Mexican cuisine
Soooo cute! Well done!

Omg! These are sooo cute! I grew up eating conchas all my life and never thought of making them look any other way than the original lol will have to try this sometime. 😁
I would so love a recipe for this even though I don’t usually bake but I would damn well impress the crap outta of my friends who don’t believe in my baking skills haha
