I promised everyone on Instagram that I'd post the template for these sweet Ice Cream Macarons a few weeks ago and here they are! They are an incredibly fun theme to use in the summer time for parties and hot day get togethers. I've also included a short video clip below on how I executed some of the details. Here's a few tips:
- use a small spoon to randomly scatter the sprinkles onto the pink ice cream portion
- wait until the cone has developed a skin before adding on the crosshatch lines
- the brown cone batter is made from my chocolate macaron recipe which you can get here
Do you know what I think would double the fun of these sweet ice cream shaped macarons? Filling them with ice cream! It's finally the season for me to embrace ice cream because I am one of those people who are constantly cold. I hear this a lot, "Why don't you just put on a sweater and then you can have cold drinks/food." Now let me tell you something that only somebody who is always shivering knows, the cold literally comes from within! 🙂 Luckily, it's warming up considerably in Vancouver, some days up to 28C, so I don't have much problem indulging in my sweet love - ice cream. Well, I bet a majority of you don't have that problem so I hope you'll get a chance to use the template to make ice cream macarons filled with ice cream! I look forward to seeing your posts and FYI, I'm going to be posting a recipe for Big Macaron Ice Cream Sandwiches soon so sign up for the newsletter if you'd like to keep in touch with moi ♥
XOXO

Hi Mimi,
I can't seem to find the ice cream cone template anywhere. I even subscribed but it's not in that section either.

Hey Mimi, thanks of the template! I've never tried macaron art yet so I'm excited to use this! Also I was wondering, after putting on the crosshatch lines, do I still need to tap it down one more time or do I just leave it? Thank you!
Mimi says
Hi Tiffaney,
You're very welcome. I hope you are able to make good use of it.
I do not tap mine at that point 🙂
XOXO,
Mimi
