my macaroons was sticking to the parchment paper and was too chewy. :( hellllppp! i took it out after 20mins.

@qistrainbow if they were sticky they were underbaked or you stired for too long when mixing the ingredients and the batter became runny.

Great instructions! I have to do a wedding cake with macarons coming down the side, and then transport it for 2hours. Should I put the macarons together just before the wedding when I get there?

[dulcedelight1]

@237rosemary It's up to you, if your cake has frosting the macarons will actually gain flavor and texture from the contact with the cake frosting but if you are afraid they may fall off during the transportation then you should put it later. Post pictures on my FB page of your cake, i want to see it =)

i tried to make it yesterday but the batter came out too runny and didn't have feet. i'm so sad. what did i do wrong?

[dulcedelight1]

@burunggiler did you do the meringue right? did you achieved stiff peaks? During the macaronage you may have stirred for too long as well and the batter became runny =(

@McKelli88 you get more volume but it's less stable. In case of the macaron, stability is way more important than volume ;)

You are wonderful! I just subscribed. I am more encouraged by watching this video. Is there a difference in quality concerning fresh ground almonds vs. pre-ground almond meal? Thank you!
