Macaron Madness

It's that time again! The time when I decide to waste an entire day doing one thing, trying to perfect french macarons. This time I made mango flavored with mango filling, lemon with lemon curd filling and pistachio with french buttercream filling. This is a very addictive hobby. I am thinking of ways to make the next batch as soon as I finish the first batch. It's weird. I hope to one day make a fabulous macaron. I could look forever at some expert macaron makers like her and her.

Macaron Success

I did make a Valentine lunch for the boys that included a lot of pink, red and lots of hearts. I didn't however post a picture because I spent Valentines day perfecting my macarons. I will say that I made 4 batches and only 1 failed which is a huge success for me. I now have an idea of what works best in my oven and have written down specific instructions for future making. So this week we enjoyed enough macarons to hold us over for quite sometime!
