The eighth baker has left The Great British Bake Off after reaching the quarter-finals.
This week was caramel themed, which saw the bakers take on challenges including baking a treacle tart, millionaire shortbread, and a nougatine showpiece.
Political economy student Moyin, 22, was named star baker for the week.
Who left the Great British Bake Off this week?
Connie, a 63-year-old NHS hospital discharge lead, failed to impress Paul and Nigella with her caramel bakes and left the iconic tent.
Connie said: "I felt an enormous sense of pride when presenters Alison Hammond and Noel Fielding announced that I would be leaving the tent."
Reflecting on her time in the competition, she said the experience reminded her that baking is about more than just cakes and biscuits.
She said: "There were many special moments during my time in the tent, but the standout moments for me were the bakes that allowed me to tell stories that were close to my heart.
"The first was my wearable Mother of the Bride hat, which I dedicated to my mum and to all mothers who have had the privilege of being the mother of the bride or groom.
"It was a very personal bake and one that meant a great deal to me."
She described the moment when Nigella Lawson modelled the hat as particularly memorable.
She said: "Seeing Nigella proudly modelling my mother of the bride hat in the tent was an incredibly special moment that I will never forget."
Another cherished bake was her biscuit map of Jamaica, created in memory of those affected by a devastating hurricane.
She said: "Both of my parents were born in Jamaica, so the island feels like a part of my family history, my heritage, and my identity.
"Being able to use my baking to honour Jamaica and its people, while recognising their strength, resilience, and spirit in the face of adversity, was incredibly important and one of the proudest moments of my time in the tent.
"Both bakes allowed me to tell stories that were close to my heart, and that is what made them so special.
"Looking back, they remind me that baking is about so much more than cakes and biscuits.

"It is about celebrating people, preserving memories, honouring our heritage, and sharing stories through food.
"Those are the moments that will stay with me forever."
Connie said dessert week was her favourite challenge, as it allowed her to revisit the classic puddings of her childhood.
She said: "Dessert Week wasn’t just about baking for me.
"It was a celebration of memories, nostalgia, and the people who have shaped my life.
"It reminded me of school dinner puddings, family meals, and the comforting desserts that bring people together.
"Being able to recreate those classics in the tent felt incredibly special."
She also expressed admiration for the younger bakers in the competition.
She said: "Every day, I saw the hard work, commitment, and passion they put into every bake.
"As we know, young people often receive negative publicity, but I hope viewers at home will see what I saw: a group of talented, kind, caring, and dedicated young people from different backgrounds who should be celebrated.
"I was incredibly proud of every one of them."
Connie described the friendships and memories she made as "priceless," and said the experience had helped her grow both as a baker and as a person.
