Customer Reviews ::

Pretty pictures but the recipes don't work! - H. Chou -
I purchased this book on amazon.co.uk (I live in UK) and it only has 6 reviews - most of which are good reviews!
In middle of attempting to make my 1st ever macarons, I found my batter was too runny and started googling what went wrong and saw Catherine Moore's review here on the US Amazon!

If I had seen her review, I'd have never purchased this book!

She's right, the recipies just don't work!

The book is really pretty & all but it's not the book u'd want to get if u want to make proper macarons!

(I added more ground almond & icing sugar to the batter and eventually made it firm enough to make some sort of shape - it tasted nice but wonky shapes and lots of cracks!)
