It’s been forever since i made macarons. And it definitely made some difference with the lack in practice. Just a few days ago i had this urge to make them! Think it’s the exams (my first paper later today!) and i needed to destress
So i decided to make some rose macarons for my friends.
Again, i used the same recipe from Tartelette
3 egg whites
110g of ground almond
200g of icing sugar
50g of sugar
Something to top off the macarons shells with
Piping bag with a big round tip
And we’re ready to go
Mix the ground almond and icing sugar together. Add your powdered colouring if you want!
Whip those egg whites! And slowly add in the sugar. I used vanilla sugar
Look at how it starts to hold it’s shape!
Whip until you get the ‘shaving cream’ consistency.
Add half the dry ingredients to your egg whites.
Fold.
Add the rest of the dry ingredients.
And fold until you get a slow moving, flow-like-magma consistency. Mix until just incorporated, nice and glossy.
Pipe them onto parchment paper/silicon mat.
Top them off with pretty things!
Bake at 280F for about 18 to 20 mins depending on size. I ended up baking 2 batches of different colours.
Make rose buttercream! Didn’t exactly have a recipe for it. Haha. But i just whipped some butter, icing sugar, rose essence and powdered colouring together until my desired consistency. You could use rose syrup too!
A bouquet of roses macarons!
I sandwiched my macarons on lollisticks like Tartelette and Bakerella! Obviously not as pretty
Need more practice yo. Hahahaha.
Hehe, for my favourite people. Love you guys!

I can’t see why u say your macaron pops ain’t as pretty as those on Tartelette and Bakerella! I’m only too pleased to accept your “rejects”. =p
haha! can’t seem to pipe my shells properly now.
need more practice! but indeed, tartelette’s and bakerella’s look awesome.
i’m sure you can bake them as well dear!
I must say, you could give Tartelette a run for her money! Your macarons look gorgeous.

thank you btw
those are so lovely! beautiful and dainty and picture-perfect. i’m sure they’re pretty easy on the palate too.

Your macarons are so darn pretty. I am yet to try those pineapple tarts. I haven’t made macs in a while either. You have given me the mac spark back. Thanks
thank you kat! can’t wait to see your post on pineapple tarts.
haha one recipe at a time. i enjoy your philippine cuisines!

heh you’re most welcome. i think i’m going on a mac frenzy soon
Congrats on being finished with your exams. These macaron pops are soooooooooo cute.
thanks!!
my batter was runny , what do u think was the misake >:
sorry i only just saw your comment!
it somehow appeared as spam. haha.
there’s many reasons to it.
eg. overmixing, overbeating, water in the bowl, humidity etc.
hey babe, where do you get your lollipop sticks from? I’ve been dying to try out macarons and cake pops!
hello! phoon huat or any other baking specialty shops.
mine’s wilton! have fun
oooh, yeah, I checked out phoon huat but theirs were like really long…. do you like, chop them into smaller sticks or something? haha.
haha no dear, there are different lengths available.
maybe the shorter ones are out of stock? yup.
oohh, hahah, yeah maybe. thanks much.(:
Hi, i’ve chanced upon your blog and will love to use your recipe to make macaroons.
How did you get the pink effect after the step: Add half the dry ingredients to your egg whites. ?
And where did you get the pretty heart topping? will love to use those as my toppings too!
Thanks! Hope to hear from you soon
my dry ingredients included a little powdered colouring
everything’s from phoon huat!
hehe all the best!
thanks for replying! is there a need to sieve the ground almonds together with the icing sugar?
yeah it’ll help you achieve the smooth and shiny tops
otherwise it’ll be really lumpy!
thankyou
!!!
