  1. OMG. They are too cute to eat! I was gonna ask how the heck are you gonna eat them?? But also, you must.

    I decided to spend 4 hours on my day off making these cute AF melon pan turtles using (and mostly following) [this recipe](https://www.modernasianbaking.com/recipes/kawaii-cute-japanese-turtle-melon-pan). Some of you may remember me as [Reddit’s okayest baker](https://www.reddit.com/r/Baking/s/oXE9nCf4sD). Well, now I think I might even qualify as “good.”

    I don’t have a cooling rack so I just turned my muffin pan upside down.

    I really want to show you all (and see for myself) the custards inside but my cuteness aggression levels are currently off the charts and I cannot bring myself to harm my beautiful turtle children. Perhaps once they have cooled.

    These are sooo darn cute, and thank you so much for the recipe, id love to try to make some next time. I’m still very new to baking and never made bread before.

  5. These are very cute!

    And about you’re okayest baker; I have doubled a recipe because of a measuring mistake before, but quadrupling? That is impressive!

    Omg these look like the cutest breads ever! I read the recipe, and these are so cute and delicious! They look like pastries called conchas, they are made similar though No custard inside. I love custard, so this would be amazing to try. Any picture with them cut in half? Like a crumb shot? 😊 Amazing work!

    Oh man these look so good! I dare say yours even looks cuter than the original recipe’s ones. Chocolate espresso sounds delicious.
