A friend of mine ordered a batch of macarons a few weeks back. I was excited about it. I made Lemon Macarons and Strawberry Macarons for him. He ordered a total of 50 macarons. I made the filling a day in advance and then the shells on the next day.
The lemon macarons came out really pretty. Smooth surface and the foot rose up nicely. As for the strawberry macarons, they came out a little small. I think it is because the batter was a little too thick.
I made more than what he ordered , just in case there were any casualty and also so that we have some for ourselves. Pei likes the coffee flavoured macarons, so I made some coffee filling and used the extra pink shells for it. Here are some pictures taken by Pei, my great photographer.
