okay, so i managed to bake some macarons last night, trying out one of pierre herme's recipes. let's just say we're not quite there yet. i haven't figured out what temperature and for how long to bake these. very frustrating trying to get them right. by the looks of it they look like macarons, but some shells are hollow, some shells aren't fully cooked... ahhh! i guess i'll have to try again some other time.

if you'd like to try and make some macarons yourself, you can certainly check out these recipes:
- coffee nutella macarons
- brown sugar salted caramel macarons
- chocolate macarons with chili pepper chocolate ganache
- peppermint macarons
- guava macarons
- chocolate banana macarons
enjoy!
I'm drooling for macarons, but I'm far away from you this wee! My SIL is gonna take me to go get some though. :)
