Dave's Feathered Chocolate Mango Florentines
Great British Baking Show ™ - Judging
Dave: "I really enjoyed eating all things mango, so that's why I wanted to put mango in there. "
Dave celebrated his love of mango with Florentines containing a mix of nuts and sesame seeds. For added crunch, he decorated each biscuit by feathering three types of chocolate.
Judging
Prue Leith: "I think you've done pretty well with the feathering. Three colors is quite difficult."
Paul Hollywood: "Good snap. The flavor is good. You can taste nuts, mango. It all sort of works. Sesame seed as well, which I love. I just think you need more texture in there as well."
Prue Leith: "I love the dark chocolate."

About The Great British Baking Show ™
The Great British Bake Off ™ (often abbreviated to Bake Off or GBBO and referred to in the United States as The Great British Baking Show ™) is a streamed British baking competition, in which a group of amateur bakers compete against each other in a series of rounds, hoping to impress the judges with their baking skills. One contestant in The Great British Baking Show ™ is eliminated in each round, and the winner is selected from the three contestants who reach the final.
The Great British Baking Show ™ operates on a weekly elimination process to find the best all-around baker from the contestants, who are all amateurs. In each episode, the bakers are given three challenges based on that week's theme: a signature bake, a technical challenge, and a show-stopper. The bakes are assessed by the judges who then choose a "Star Baker" for the week, and a contestant is also eliminated. In the final round, three bakers are left and a winner is chosen from the three.
