Gerogia.. I am literally crying tears of JOY!!! Before your recipe.. I was having so much trouble getting the right consistency.. and NOW!!! My macarons are PERFECT!! Thank you so much Sweetie.. Have a Blessed Day.. =)
love this! always been so intimidated to make macarons (especially with all the rumours that they're so difficult to perfect) but your recipe is giving me hope! can't wait to try them. thanks a bunch xx
I made these earlier today and they were so simple!! thank you so much for this recipe! I added almond flavour to the icing and they were fab! (my dad has already eaten 3 and he's only been in 20 minutes!) X
Macaroons are made with coconut and have chocolate drizzle. They were my gpas favourite cookie. They're similar to Flourentines but not so thin. Macarons are basically meringue sandwich cookies. The name Macaron is short for Macaronage, which is the specific folding technique used to incorporate the meringue and almond mixtures together. French or Italian are the most popular and refers to which meringue was used. There's also a Swiss macaron, but that one isn't as common to find. Hope that passes on the knowledge!! This was my first time on your channel and you now have a new follower!!🤩🤩
thank you so much Georgia, your tips are always the most useful!! I'm so so motivated to try these out again, I've never heard a better explanation of how to make macarons..so thank you forever!! I'm looking forward to see more videos from you!😘😘
Thank you for this video. This was my first attempt at Macarons and they were mostly successful! They all taste great but some have lopsided “feet”. I’ll have to work on my piping skills. Thanks again, Georgia.
First time was a charm with your receipe! WOW thank you so much! I failed a lot while making Macarons last year and I kinda had a PTSD about it so I gave up...but your seemed soooo less stressfull and calculated, I had to give it a try. Thank you again!
Hi Georgia! New follower here and I’ve got to say I am loving all that you are sharing!! I do want to say though (you 😊 may have already been told) in the U.S. there is a BIG difference between a MACARON and a MACAROON. The Macaroon is a coconut cookie! I am looking forward to seeing all of your yummy creations!!! Keep them coming!
This is an update on my post 6 days ago. I made my 2nd batch yesterday and it worked perfectly again. No hollows!!! That was my problem before as I was using the French meringue method. Note though that I am using a hand mixer and initially I got a 'soupy' meringue. The correction I made is to whipped my egg whites to firm peaks before I add the sugar syrup. Thank you very much for your video.
I just tried macrons for the first time recently, and now they are my new favorite thing! I am totally going to have to give this a try. Loved how you explained the process in this video. :)
You are my favorite baking channel! you explain everything so good and simple. All your recipes are very useful, even though some of your videos are long I never get bored. You are so lovely I’m glad I found your channel! Also could you make a video on how to make different flavored macarons, like coffee, banana or chocolate?
Thank you, Georgia for sharing your amazing recipes! We are baking your delicious macarons right now! We are practicing how to make them. My daughter’s Sweet Sixteen is in two weeks and she wants me to make her your drip cake, she absolutely loves it! I’ll let you know how it went! 💗
I love your style of teaching! Are macarons better if you chill them for 24 hours after putting together so the texture is better? Also....I would love to see a Key Lime version! :)
Great video! Just wanted to mention that a MACAROON is a completely different than macarons. It's a coconut cluster cookie. TOTALLY DIFFERENT and nothing like a macaron.
Great video. What you've actually made are Italian Macarons (based on making an italian meringue base).French macarons (the original, traditional french pastry/biscuit, are made using a french meringue base (ie, using caster sugar & egg whites only, ie no sugar syrup) and macaroons are a completely different biscuit, made from coconut and an eggwhite.
Bowl of ice WATER! Go from the cold water into the syrup straight back into the water and roll the cold syrup, . I always test sugar syrup by hand, im a retired pastry chef.
Hi Georgia!! I love ALL your videos so simple and easy to follow! Thank you! I’ve made these before (ages ago) and they came out PERFECT, I’m about to make them again but I can’t for the life of me remember what I did for oven temperature? I think it was 135•C but for how long? Thank you so much!! 😊
Hi Georgia, I tried your macaron and it’s 99.5% a success, I’m so pleased with it my only problem is the top is not 100% smooth, is there a trick you can share with me. Thank you so much tho. I’d like to try some of your cake recipes next time too. Keep baking 🥰
Thank you for this video, you make it look so easy than the other videos which looks complicated. I'm going back to try to make again for the 10th time lol
Rather than sticking your numb hand in to the hot sugar to test soft ball, take a teaspoon and dip it in the melted sugar and drip the liquid into a glass of cold water if it forms a ball it’s ready to use.
I love your channel! Thank you so much for explaining all these techniques so well and making it so fun to learn new recipes! These pink macarons look sensational. I wondered if you would be interested in making a salted caramel macaron video? They are my absolute favourite but I have no idea where to start with making them! Thanks again for all your wonderful and inspiring videos!
Thank you! Salted caramel macarons just require some salted caramel being added into the filling - I have a salted caramel video, be sure to check it out! x
Twisting the tip has nothing to do with air bubbles, it stops the batter draining out while you're filling it. Nice results anyway. Can't beat success.!
You make it look so easy!! I’m going to attempt this and the meringue peeks 😁 If I make them how long will they both last for? I wanted to make them two days before adding them as the decoration on a cake. Would that be ok? Thanks so much!! x
Hi, these look amazing and you make it look so simple that I really want to have a go 😁 Can I ask what model your kitchen aid is that you use on this video? I’ve wanted one for years, I’ve had a kenwood one but I think I want to go for a kitchenaid this time but I need one with a decent size bowl and yours looks like it’s a good size! Anyway thanks so much for sharing x
My daughter and I love to watch your videos. We would however love if you would list ingredients and recipes as well. Best of luck. Your recipes are almost as beautiful as you!
Hi Georgia, recently discovered you and I love your video's ;) just wondering I'm having a moment, when splitting the egg whites are you putting 35g in each dish or are you splitting 35g between the two bowls (as in 17.5g each bowl) thanks Maria xx
I would love to see how you make rose macarons! How would rose water change the recipe of the filling? Thanks for these videos! Makes me so excited to try it out!
Hi Georgia, I love your tutorials, thankyou so much, however could you tell me how you would store the Macarons, meringue kisses, cakes ect until needed. I take it that you dont make all of your toppers on the same day as making your cake. Also I live your sponge recipe, how long and how would I store it before decorating x
This looks amazing! I've been reading about and watching macaron videos for years but now I think I'm actually going to try making them. Thank you for such a lovely video. And I love that you didn't waste the egg yolk, it got used up in the batch of filling. I couldn't help but admire your pink food scale. Would love to get myself one of those. Could you share where you got it from? I tried googling it but that one didn't come up. Thanks very much.
Hi Georgia, love your recipes. Please tell me, what is the brand of your stove?. I need something like that for my kitchen because I don´t have too much room in there. Thank you.
Hi Georgia.. I tried your Macaron recipe today.. When i baked, all of my macarons got cracks on top.. But they tasted amazing.. What should I do for a perfect top? Lots of love from India
Hi!! lovely video! I want to try your recipe, my question is did you baked them in a convection oven? I only have convection oven whwere the air is moving? o the heat comes from the bottom? Thank you!
Are your oven temps fan or conventional? Which is better for macarons? (Sorry I have to call them macarons as macaroons to me are those coconut bites). I often get a brown tinge to the top of my macarons - is that because they’ve been too long in the oven? Thank you
Recently discovered your channel and I love it! I've already saved the meringue kiss recipe and method to try for cake decoration 🙈🙈 would love to see seashell macarons also! Hoping to try this recipe although last time I made macarons they turned green in the oven! 😂😂 xxx
Yes! I usually pipe all the mixture out onto separate trays and cook them one by one (some ovens allow more than one tray to cook at a time but best to play it safe!)
Really straight forwards and clear vid, I have a question what speed are you whisking the egg whites on and for how long before you add sugar syrup and then what speed do you turn it down to. Thanks so much
You want a medium - high speed to make sure they are whisked up enough before adding the sugar syrup - just make sure you don't ever whisk them otherwise they start to separate!
Gerogia.. I am literally crying tears of JOY!!! Before your recipe.. I was having so much trouble getting the right consistency.. and NOW!!! My macarons are PERFECT!! Thank you so much Sweetie.. Have a Blessed Day.. =)
So glad to hear!!! Well done!
vandana mehta did you tap the tray across the work space?
Can't wait to try this recipe. I gave up making them. The first i used another recipe the colour changed and they fell flat
Omg you made me a believer! I’ve had 30 plus fails until I tried your recipe! 🙏🏽🙏🏽Thanks soooo much! This worked perfectly.
You are so welcome!
love this! always been so intimidated to make macarons (especially with all the rumours that they're so difficult to perfect) but your recipe is giving me hope! can't wait to try them. thanks a bunch xx

14:35, and thanks to Georgia, I love baking and ALWAYS had to look for so many videos to find the perfect one especially for macarons!
First time was a charm with your receipe! WOW thank you so much! I failed a lot while making Macarons last year and I kinda had a PTSD about it so I gave up...but your seemed soooo less stressfull and calculated, I had to give it a try. Thank you again!
A perfect example of the proper way to make this delicious cookie (biscuit)!

Looking forward to see more of your videos ❤ ❤
Thank you so much!
I just love you 😘 and so Appreciate you Georgia I can’t wait to try this recipe and see if I can literally make Macarons come out the way yours have
I love your style of teaching! Are macarons better if you chill them for 24 hours after putting together so the texture is better? Also....I would love to see a Key Lime version! :)
Yes, the macarons mature and take on some of the flavour of the filling and the shells actually soften a bit.
You are amazing! I’m so glad you started making videos.
It seems super easy to make with ur recipes..thanks slot for everything..keep doing more and more recipes
Great video! Just wanted to mention that a MACAROON is a completely different than macarons. It's a coconut cluster cookie. TOTALLY DIFFERENT and nothing like a macaron.

Hi. Thank you so much for your video. I have tried for a lång time to get perfect macarones. Now they are. So happy. Regards from Sweden 😀
Bowl of ice WATER!
Go from the cold water into the syrup straight back into the water and roll the cold syrup, .
I always test sugar syrup by hand, im a retired pastry chef.
Hi Georgia, You should make love hearted shaped macarons!
Brilliant work! Keep it up!
Thank you❤. Finally I make my macarons 🎉
I'll try this at home then I will send you the result. Hope to make it perfect in one shot..Thank you
Hi Georgia, I was taught to first sieve the ground almonds & then weigh it.
That’s a good idea! The almond flour I have is so thick! Even when I put it in the food processor!
You make everything look so easy. Definitely will try your way
Hi Georgia!! I love ALL your videos so simple and easy to follow! Thank you! I’ve made these before (ages ago) and they came out PERFECT, I’m about to make them again but I can’t for the life of me remember what I did for oven temperature? I think it was 135•C but for how long? Thank you so much!! 😊
Fantastic! You are the best!!😘
Hi Georgia, I tried your macaron and it’s 99.5% a success, I’m so pleased with it my only problem is the top is not 100% smooth, is there a trick you can share with me. Thank you so much tho. I’d like to try some of your cake recipes next time too. Keep baking 🥰
Thank you! Love this | Little Note: I would never put my finger in HOT syrup. That's a safety hazard... just thinking out loud lol
Using a glass to sieve out the sugar is such a great idea! And the Macarons look cute :)
its a great tip!! Thank you!
Thanx Georgia I Love ur tutorials wil try it straight forward thnx.
watching your video makes baking easy and adorable😍😍😍
All your videos are amazing and so are you❣️
I'm always so amazed and speechless 😶
The 30 Times thing is for French macarons and you're making Italian macarons. And it's true once you reach then the consistency is to what you want
Thank you for this video, you make it look so easy than the other videos which looks complicated. I'm going back to try to make again for the 10th time lol
Thank you! and good luck ;)
They look so beautiful
Rather than sticking your numb hand in to the hot sugar to test soft ball, take a teaspoon and dip it in the melted sugar and drip the liquid into a glass of cold water if it forms a ball it’s ready to use.
Holly MacDonald she is using an old technique used in pastry school. I’ve fine this myself and it actually doesn’t hurt!
you are very talented, and i have always wanted to know how to make Macarons!!! thank you so much for the advise!
It is wonderful to listen to good explanation and looking to a beautiful face and spirit. Thank you for sharing💕💖💕💖💕
I love your channel! Thank you so much for explaining all these techniques so well and making it so fun to learn new recipes! These pink macarons look sensational.

Thank you! Salted caramel macarons just require some salted caramel being added into the filling - I have a salted caramel video, be sure to check it out! x
Oh perfect, thank you!

Your method of making the Macarons looks less complicated. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much for the video, Georgia. Would You please make Macs with passion fruit. :)
Lovely. I'll made these soon.
Hi Goergia! I’m having a tough time getting the recipe to cups/tsp vs grams. Any tips on converting it?
I'm soooooo glad I found your channel I was so delighted with the outcome of the macarons I made thank you so much
Twisting the tip has nothing to do with air bubbles, it stops the batter draining out while you're filling it.
Nice results anyway.
Can't beat success.!
You make it look so easy!! I’m going to attempt this and the meringue peeks 😁
If I make them how long will they both last for?
I wanted to make them two days before adding them as the decoration on a cake. Would that be ok?
Thanks so much!! x
Hi, these look amazing and you make it look so simple that I really want to have a go 😁
Can I ask what model your kitchen aid is that you use on this video? I’ve wanted one for years, I’ve had a kenwood one but I think I want to go for a kitchenaid this time but I need one with a decent size bowl and yours looks like it’s a good size!
Anyway thanks so much for sharing x
I have the same size as hers pretty sure it’s a 4.8 litre size bowl xx
My daughter and I love to watch your videos. We would however love if you would list ingredients and recipes as well. Best of luck. Your recipes are almost as beautiful as you!
Can’t wait to try this.. how would I do a gel filling instead of buttercream?
thank you so much for making this as easy as possible I am still scared to make them so i can't wait to do it
tips and tricks help so much thanks for this video
Hi Georgia, thank you for the detailed explanation. It's simple and easy to follow. what can I use as a substitute for ground almonds?
You can use other ground nuts :)
Millirue Marimo you can substitute with any other ground nut like pecan or hazelnut. I hope this pastry chef tip was helpful!
Hie Georgia, great video thanks for the tips...will this method work with All purpose flour?
Wowww! Perfection! Also, I love the way u say macaron 😍
Haha thank you!
Great job on the macaroons.
made these 2day and they turned out great.. thanks.. x
What a nice tutorial!! Enjoyed That..
The way you made it is look so easy 😍
Thank you so much. Can't wait to try these!
Let me know how they turn out! x
Hi Georgia, recently discovered you and I love your video's ;) just wondering I'm having a moment, when splitting the egg whites are you putting 35g in each dish or are you splitting 35g between the two bowls (as in 17.5g each bowl) thanks Maria xx
Thank you! 35g in each dish :)
Thank you so much for replying xx
So 70 g total of egg white?
I would love to see how you make rose macarons! How would rose water change the recipe of the filling? Thanks for these videos! Makes me so excited to try it out!
its very powerful rose water so you don't need a lot - so shouldn't affect it too much!
Best Recipe!
Hi Georgia, I love your tutorials, thankyou so much, however could you tell me how you would store the Macarons, meringue kisses, cakes ect until needed. I take it that you dont make all of your toppers on the same day as making your cake. Also I live your sponge recipe, how long and how would I store it before decorating x
I love your videos! how do you store these and how long do they keep for?
When you say other flavorings, what do you use for that? Are there different extracts? Raspberry, for instance?
This looks amazing! I've been reading about and watching macaron videos for years but now I think I'm actually going to try making them. Thank you for such a lovely video. And I love that you didn't waste the egg yolk, it got used up in the batch of filling.
I couldn't help but admire your pink food scale. Would love to get myself one of those. Could you share where you got it from? I tried googling it but that one didn't come up. Thanks very much.
Thanks so much! I think I got it from amazon - its the Salter ones :)
Hi Georgia! I loved your idea of using the egg yolks by filling the macarons with French buttercream. Could you make passionfruit macarons?
Yes you can! I would buy or make a passion fruit curd and fill it in the inside with vanilla around the edge :P
Hi Georgia, love your recipes. Please tell me, what is the brand of your stove?. I need something like that for my kitchen because I don´t have too much room in there. Thank you.
loving your videos!! would the macaroons keep or do you have to eat the day you make then?
they look so good
Hi Georgia.. I tried your Macaron recipe today.. When i baked, all of my macarons got cracks on top.. But they tasted amazing.. What should I do for a perfect top? Lots of love from India
Hi!! lovely video! I want to try your recipe, my question is did you baked them in a convection oven? I only have convection oven whwere the air is moving? o the heat comes from the bottom? Thank you!
Are your oven temps fan or conventional? Which is better for macarons? (Sorry I have to call them macarons as macaroons to me are those coconut bites). I often get a brown tinge to the top of my macarons - is that because they’ve been too long in the oven? Thank you
Hi, love your recipe. Quick question, can I use pasteurized egg whites instead of fresh egg white?
Recently discovered your channel and I love it! I've already saved the meringue kiss recipe and method to try for cake decoration 🙈🙈 would love to see seashell macarons also! Hoping to try this recipe although last time I made macarons they turned green in the oven! 😂😂 xxx
Oh gosh! Hopefully it will work this time!!
You are simply amazing, well detailed explanation. Thank you so much.
Hi geogia, what do you do with your leftover macaron batter? do you pipe them and bake after the first tray of macaron is done?
Yes! I usually pipe all the mixture out onto separate trays and cook them one by one (some ovens allow more than one tray to cook at a time but best to play it safe!)
Really straight forwards and clear vid, I have a question what speed are you whisking the egg whites on and for how long before you add sugar syrup and then what speed do you turn it down to. Thanks so much
You want a medium - high speed to make sure they are whisked up enough before adding the sugar syrup - just make sure you don't ever whisk them otherwise they start to separate!
Hi Georgia! do these work with high altitude? Thank you.
Hi Gerogia! What should the texture of the ground almonds be like? Should it be really fine?? btw your videos are amazing and so clear!! Thank you!
Aw thanks! The texture should be as fine as possible, some people put them in a processor but putting them through a sieve is fine too! :)
Georgia's Cakes Oh thanks! I'm using store bought almond flour , hope that's okay?? Or would you suggest making it at home??
What a wonderful video! Your so talented!! Where did you get that adorable cake marquee sign!!! Keep making these fabulous videos!
Thanks so much! I was given it as a gift :) x
