This book would make a great gift for you and anyone who loves to bake." ― Amazon customer

    If you already have your macaron recipe working, maybe that's not the book for you. It brings nice tips and some recipes to give some flavor to the shells, but is quite the same recipe always. But they do work nice! I tried the banana shell, but filled with dulce de leche.

    Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2024
    Verified Purchase
    I gave this book 5 stars because it really does have some great recipes and a lot of information it. My recommendation though for the buttercream recipes is to do one batch at a time. I recently made a recipe from this book and made 4 batches of a buttercream recipe. I measured every thing correctly and I felt like there was too much liquid in the mixing bowl. It was kind of just moving the butter mixture around and not forming like buttercream should. I found that I have to add more confectioners sugar to soak up the remaining liquids and to think up the butter mixture. So next time I make a buttercream from this book, I’m making one batch to see if I have the same problem.

    My ten year old daughter and I bought this book to make macarons for the first time ever. We made the chocolate shells with a chocolate filling, and our first attempt was beautiful and delicious. While they were time consuming, the instructions were clear, and the intimidating project wasn’t difficult. I’m very happy I found this book.
