BUMMER cuz they were a beautiful shade of blue!! Blueberry w/ Meyer lemon buttercream. Not sure how they taste yet. Only second time making them. First attempt I just focused on technique and made simple vanilla. Would love to hear some possible reasons for the lack of color. THANKS!!

I didn't grind the nuts fine enough. Anyway, I love your fillings...I too would love the blackberry-lemon ones :) Back to Helen's recipe, eh?! :) Mine didn’t turn out well to…in fact, looks worst than what you have!

I remember pink and purple used to be my two fav colors as a little girl, and I think they look lovely together. Plus, the flavor sounds incredible...red currants too! Mascarpone with berries is perfection, as berries and cream is classic. I used it in my pumpkin filling..and YUM! All in all, beautifully done, and I definitely preferred Helen's method and recipe over the Felemings..n contest! Simone,,I LOVE your pink shells with the lavender like blackberry filling.

Wat maak je een verrukkelijke dingen en die fotos van je, echt para chuparse los dedos (om je vingers bij af te likken ;-) ). Vind je macaroons trouwens echt cuties :-) Je zult wel niet (meer) weten wie ik ben, ik ben Lara van het taartenforum en Julio heeft ooit in NL nog een fotoworkshop (met de taarten) bij je gedaan... we wonen nu in Spanje overigens ;-) Veel groetjes en veel sukses met de volgende uitdaging!
