Chocolate Orange Caramel Biscuits
Great British Baking Show ™ - Judging
Voice-over: "Mike's orange zest biscuits will form the base of a chocolate orange millionaire shortbread decorated with lilac flowers for a taste of home flowers from the farm."
Mike: "I literally was picking these lilac yesterday afternoon on the way here. And these caramel biscuits are my dad's favorites. We always, always, always make them on the farm."
"I do think your caramel biscuits look quite nice on the top. I don't like the bulging on the side of the caramel, they should be nice and neat."
Mike: "I actually over-chilled it a bit and couldn't get them out of the tin."
"The caramel's got a lovely orange flavour to it and the chocolate is nice. I just think the shortbread could have been thinner and crispier."
"The shortbread could be a little bit crispy, but really, I think it tastes lovely."

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.
