In this short tutorial I will show you a technique for creating multicolored topping for your conchas. This technique is simple and will allow you to create endless color combinations for your conchas.
If you are a Harry Potter fan, these colors might look familiar to you. I will be honest with you- I have never seen Harry Potter so my knowledge on it is extremely limited. What I do know: Harry Potter is a wizard, there are 4 houses, and my cousin’s favorite house is Gryffindor.
I recently also learned that Robert Pattinson is in it (so maybe I should watch it…) If I watch them I’ll come back and edit this post! 🙂
Since my cousin’s favorite house is Gryffindor and these conchas were for her birthday I used Gryffindor colors.
What You'll Need to Make your Conchas

Simple Technique for Multicolored Conchas
- Separate your concha topping into your preferred colors. For these conchas I used 3: Burgundy, Autumn Gold, and White. All colors are by The Sugar Art.
- Create 2-5 rods of small pieces of topping.
- Flatten out the rods.
- Place the flattened topping on top of each piece of dough
- Score with bread stamp.
6. Flatten out some white colored topping and cut out the letter M with a small cookie cutter.
*This part is optional: I wanted to further customize the conchas for my cousin so I added her initial.
7. Place the letter on top of the topping.
8. Follow the baking process as outlined in my conchas tutorial
