Happy Easter to all!!

As part of my Easter celebrations this year I have decided to make macarons! Instead of the customary exchanging of chocolate eggs, I thought it would be nice to do something different. For the past two months or so I have been working on perfecting the art of macarons. Its definitely not an easy task - so many times I have thrown away whole batches! I'm not perfect yet, but I have learned plenty.
So what flavours have I chosen? Well I have concocted my very own 'Hot Cross Bun 'and Red Bean & Custard flavours.

I'm very happy about how they both turned out, but I am most proud of the 'Hot Cross Bun' Mac! Trusting my instinct on flavouring the white chocolate ganache paid off, as I combined in with intensely flavoured raisins.

A hugely enjoyable Easter weekend with macs all packaged in Chinese takeaway boxes. Many positive comments and reinforcements made me a happy hopping bunny! =)
