Hola Nayeli! The marranito cookies that taste like ginger are American adaptations of the marranitos… in Mexico they don’t have ginger! Ok, for the Tres Leches, the cake should be dry so that it withholds the sauce, make sure that you poke it all over before adding the sauce? And the conchas… they are sort of gooey and sticky when raw, but if they seem too gooey and sticky, try adding a bit more flour, let me know!!

Hi pati,
wow all your pastries are amazing i tried your marranito recipe and they are to die for. although alot of people that tasted them told me that original marranitos usually taste like ginger bread. Im not sure what they originally tasted like since i was born here.
also i tried your tres leches cake and for some reason i cant get it right and it ends up drying up. if you have any suggestions it would be helpful.
now yesterday i tried your conchas and they tasted good but my dough was super sticky nothing like the pictures you posted. any suggestions that could help would be greatly appreciated.
thank you for bringing authentic mexican pastries so we can keep our heratiage alive. also if you could let me know how i can go about doing tastings in mexico and learning more i would really appreciate it. i would be a great experiance for me to do.

Hi, Paty
I’m doing the conchas and followed your directions, i left the dough cover for 6 hours.
When i went to shape them the dough was too sticky.
I greased my hands followed the next step but and i’m letting them rise with the sugar topping.
Are they supposed to be really sticky?
