Look at this nibba don't have enough bankroll to get into the macaron game.

they're difficult to make.

I had one for the first time this year. tasted like a Froot Loop cookie, not all that great

>>13682524
have you ever tried to make them? it's a huge fucking mess for nothing.

just eat frosting.

>>13682552
you know they come in all kinds of flavors, right?

>it's a huge fucking mess for nothing.
they're really cute so it's worth it if you care about aesthetic at all.

almond flour is expensive and they are difficult to make

>>13682669
Basicamente.

>>13682524
Because they're worth it when done right.

want to try them but I'm observing Jew

I hate these faggy little things

Because faggots pay for them
They have a "Hard to make" fame
Most places make shitty macaroons so of course I will be charging extra for them
And Almonds are expensive

almond flour is expensive and making them perfect costs extra and produces waste because you have to discard the cracked or otherwise faulty ones.

Honestly they taste great no matter what they look like and aren't that hard to make so you should just make your own.

I remember working at a pastry shop making around 1680 shells per day, the best batches had a 80% success rate

>>13685051
yeah and that gets reflected in the price of the final product.

Even though the "failed" shells taste just as good as the intact ones.

>All this waste.
I would think woke faggots would be up in arms over this kinda shit.
But it would ruin their day to try to cancel the Macaroon.

Recommended recipe? Never had one but fuck it why not.

>>13685085
Ehhhh
The ones that just merge are good, but some are too thin and dry

almond flour, they are easy to ruin, and getting the signature "crinkle feet" is hard

>macaroons
Its macarons. Macaroons are a coconut based cookie.
