Tips from our kitchen

• Timing: sprinkles, pearls and sugar decorations stick best when you add them straight after piping, while the shells are still fresh.
• Attaching flowers: on a finished macaron, fix flowers with a dab of ganache or melted couverture.
• Shimmer: apply glitter dust and gold dust with a fine brush. A little goes a long way.
• Storage: keep dried flowers dry and away from light.

Everything for shells and fillings is under macarons.
