Macarons which are beautifully presented in a transparent treat bag, adorned with ribbon and bows and a cute gift tag can be the perfect wedding party favors. I packed these delicious cookies according to the bride's instructions. There were 29 guests attending. She specifically asked that I make 29 macarons in mint green and 29 in pink, She wanted one mint green and one pink to be given to each guests.
Making the cookie may sound as an easy task but I was overwhelmed with the whole process from start to finish. I failed several times before I was able to make decent cookies. First, I tried to bake from scratch. The cookies came out with a cracked top and no feet. Then I tried to use macaron mix. The result was the same. It took me days until I got it right.Well, sort of. The final macarons had very small feet. I couldn't afford to start all over again as I had a wedding cake to make and my daily work load. The macaron making took me too much time and effort. Up til now, I still couldn't figure out what went wrong. Perhaps the quality of my almond meal was the reason. Or was it because I over grind it. Another reason could be because I didn't dry them out in the oven? I am not an expert. I believe I will have the answer over time.
Just a day before the big day, I was glad to have macarons good enough to give away as a wedding favor. I filled them with vanilla butter cream and packed them single-handedly. What a stressful week that was.
The bride brought the plastic treat bags, sheer ribbon and gift tags.
Look how cute they were!
I must also take this moment to say that I DID like all of the dresses tried on, but this particular purchase involved more than sensibility and logic. It involved YEARS of girlie imagining, fashion perusing and the heart of "Uptown Red Head!"
