Mactweet : Celebrations

It's been a while i'm hibernating from posting an entry for mactweet.. But since this month is a several celebrations month for me and family, i'm posting this for mactweet..

The celebration start with my mum's 56th birthday on 2nd March. Followed by my wedding anniversary for a second year on 6th March and today is my dad's birthday on 12th March.

For my parents bday celeration i made a medium size cake with maple syrup cherse frosting and i used the leftover of the frosting and dark choc  ganache to create a burger look a like macaron as another sweet things to cheer up the celebration...

To all macaron designers, let's MACTWEET

MacTweets #1 : Fruit which is very WTF!

I saw this badge in several macaron bakers blog.. Probably they've joining Mac Tweets monthly theme.. Hehe This time i feel i wanna join the challenge for fun..~What the fun!....lalala

The recent theme (according to MacTweets last entry) is  about fresh fruit.. For the time being, the macs that i prepared was not so adventures.. Maybe in future I need to allocate some times and budget exploring on mac shells and fillings..

I've try 3 type of meringue preparation ; French, Italian and Swiss. I personally quite comfortable using French technique because it doesn't require so much gadget.. and I'm sugar syrup phobic too..huuu)

For the filling, my 1st preference is chocolate ganache.. 2nd is chocolate ganache.. and 3rd is chocolate ganache..:p

Ok to cut the story short, for this theme i'm preparing ;

Dutch cocoa mac shell + dark choc ganache + strawberry slice

Ignore the existence of air pocket.. this macaron melting heavenly in mouth oke :)

p/s : this is one of solution to reduce the sweetness of macaron.. anyway as long as it is macaron, it should taste sweet aite?
