macarons: an illustrated guide.

Macarons, macarons, macarons. I may have gone a bit macaron mad. As well as food blogging, searching out the best sushi and Instagram-ing my breakfast, I also love to play around with illustrations. So I thought I'd put the two together and create this recipe guide to making the tiny treats. 

Macaron Recipe Guide

What do you think? Would you try your hand at macarons with French meringue now or maybe you've got some tips to share too? I'd love to know your thoughts on my illustrated infographic approach too. I've written a recipe tutorial before but it is pretty lengthy and picture heavy!

Now you've mastered the basics, you can find my macaron recipes on my blog, as well as vegan macarons with chickpea liquid instead of egg whites. Enjoy!

PS, Feel free to share my guide but please credit back to my blog!

  4. I keep meaning to try and make macarons - I love them so much. I bought some dark green colour to have a go at pistachio ones and then forgot about it. This is a great guide - pinning for future reference.

  10. Spiralizers are best known for making terrific noodles and curly fries, but they’re actually good for a lot more than that! If you don't have ideas, Mr Veggie Chopper can help you to find the best one for yourself.

  11. To get the nice rim around the bottom of the cookie, drop the pan of cookies onto the counter a couple of times before cooking. It works really well!
