Basics of French Macarons

Talk about love at first bite! From the moment a macaron's crisp meringue crunch gives way to a smooth, delectable filling, you may forget all other cookies exist. These colorful French confections can be tricky to make, but after you master techniques from meringue making to macaronage, you'll love creating your own macarons at home. Our instructor will share the secrets for incorporating food colors, piping with precision, and even achieving the perfect pied (foot). We'll celebrate summer's bounty of fresh fruit by creating a variety of seasonal flavors and filling. When you present these scrumptious and spectacular treats to friends and family, they're sure to say "Ooh la la!"
