Introduction

2 lectures
Meet Abby!

I'm so glad you're here! Macarons are so special, and you're just a few hours away from learning how to bake them yourself!

This course is pretty straightforward! Each section is complete with lectures that contain videos, notes, and/or PDF downloads attached. Be sure to read/watch everything provided!

Everyone learns differently... I'm more inclined to read and watch everything before I actually start the baking process... you might be more of a head-first type of learner. You have lifetime access to this course material, so you do you!!!

It's helpful to set expectations when making macarons. They are one of the hardest pastries to get right for a reason, so if you don't nail it the first time, don't fret! Each attempt is a learning process and you get closer with every try. There's a troubleshooting guide for you in the Bonus Content section, and I am available to help you along the way!

If you have a question or comment at any point in the course, feel free to message me through Udemy!

FAQ: Do the egg whites need to be aged or at room temperature?

Nope! I have had just as much success with aged egg whites as I have with fresh, and the same for room temp vs. straight out of the fridge. My egg whites are usually straight from the fridge!

    If I'm paying for a course I expect to learn more than all the hundreds of free courses online. The video where she's talking about how to line a pastry bag with food coloring for stripes needs to be redone - it's horrible quality. I expecting more details as she's explained each step. Are the egg whites room temp? are they aged overnight? For the filling, what is the measurement of butter & cream cheese - are they room temperature? She mentions the filling recipe is attached to the video but I could not find it. This camera person did not have the right angle in #8 in making the meringue with granulated sugar. This course was not what I expected, sorry.
