Macaron Tower with Pistachio Buttercream
Some fantastic news for you all – I’ve teamed up with Essential Ingredients for a Hands-On Macaron Making class on the 21st of August (Saturday) from 10:00 am to 1:00 pm. In this three hour hands on class we’ll cover ALL THE THINGS I WISH I KNEW before making these delectable french treats myself. For only $125 per head, you get to join this hands-on class, take home the recipes as well as the macarons you make during the class (if there are any left!).
The idea behind this class is to be able to arm you with enough confidence to make your own macarons at home. The session will cover:
- French Method to making macarons
- Italian Method to making macarons
- Ganaches and Buttercream fillings
- How to Pipe macarons
- Essential Ingredients to a perfect macaron
And most importantly, macaron secrets that you’ll never read about in cookbooks. After obsessing over these treats for almost four years, kilos of wasted almond meal and egg whites, I wish there was a class like this when I first started making them! Believe me, these treats are so finicky that it makes a big difference to be shown how to make them compared to learning from a cook book. But the good news is, once you know the tricks (for example, how to ensure the batter is ready to be piped), they are a cinch to make.

And while we’ll go over two basic recipes in the class, at the end of the session you’ll be able to come up with your own macaron flavours easily! Lemon lime? Chocolate and chili? Mango and caramel? The flavour combinations are endless!
Essential Ingredients is located in 731 Darling Street, Rozelle. For bookings, please call 9555 8300.
