Thank you so much for the tip on how to pipe these babies! I’ve got my recipe down pat. I now KNOW what “MAGMA” looks like and they are turning out well with wonderful flavor and texture.

My problem has been getting them to come out in perfect circles. Clearly, I was piping them wrong (90 degree angle but in swirls. I’ll try the technique you describe with tomorrow’s batch and see if I can get the circles to be as perfect as the rest of the elements.

Just like Farida, I haven’t tried making these. I love how beautiful they look and am worried that I might spoil the shape!

Alyson, thanks for your comment. It was great! I will attempt to make the others and post the recipes then :-) Watch this space!

Ginger, shame you couldn’t make it. Well done team in this case, I was the one bringing down the average ;-)

farida, give them a try or attend a class, so much fun! Don’t eat 6 in a row though ;-)

Jeanne, it was great, maybe we should meet for a macaron afternoon tea sometime! A bloggers gathering?? :-)

That looks so lovely! I’m sorry it fell on the busiest weekend I had booked in November :( Have macaron withdrawal symptoms!

Wow! Am very jealous, macarons are my absolute favourite thing to make so a macaron making class seems like heaven! Any tips on how to make the salted caramel type?
