"I Love Macarons" is a step-by-step guide to making macaroons, with photographs that accompany each step. Macaroons are increasing in popularity, as more and more bakeries offer them in the US, Europe, and Japan. The white, pink, yellow, green, and various other colour combinations, and their round, domelike shape make macaroons charming. The sweet, crispy texture of the puffs and the thick cream between them add a rich harmony to this delicate pastry. It is the type of pastry that makes you so happy when you receive it as a gift that you are bound to say, 'Wow, how cute they are!'. The author of "I Love Macarons" has created recipes for making superb macarons at home. After going through many trials - such as trying to figure out how to make the pied (the little foot of the macaron) or how not to crack the pastries - she came up with recipes that anyone can make. Using ordinary equipment and utensils for preparing the ingredients, such as simple cookware and a regular oven, anyone can give the recipes a try.
