before you start:
if you are new to macarons you may want to start with my DIY guide.
my favorite macaron book is here …. and not just because i wrote it 🙂
you will need:
– macaron shells
– vanilla bean buttercream (or filling of your choice)
– green candy melts
– green and white jimmy sprinkles
– wax paper
– green edible ink pen
– green heart shaped sprinkles
– royal icing
to make them:
1. pair similar size shells and fill with buttercream. chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.
2. melt green candy coating. remove macarons and gently dip 1/3 – 1/2 into the coating.
3. dip into the sprinkles and set on wax paper upright to cool.
4. use a green edible ink pen and draw a stem for the clover directly on the top shell.
5. use a small amount of royal icing and adhere the green hearts into a clover shape.
