Number Macarons with Template

Have you noticed that the last few tutorials I wrote on #macaronart, the characters like the pink bears and Moshi Maro were perfectly symmetrical? Therefore, you could use the same template for both the top and bottom shell. Today, we’re going to take our #macaronart up a notch and pipe these asymmetrical numbers. With these shapes, your template needs to have the usual “top-view” design plus the inverse of that to ensure they match properly when you assemble them together.

I created these numeric shaped macaron templates for you all to download and print out. Once printed, each number is approximately 2 1/2 inches tall (depending on your printer settings). It’s a sturdy size that will prevent breakage and looks great on top of a cake or other desserts. They will truly add that extra touch to a birthday cake and may even help eliminate the need for additional decorations!

Here’s a short video I made which shows how I pipe these numbers. I’m using an Atecco 805 tip.

Please enjoy these templates and if you do use them in your projects, please tag me. I’d love to share your work with other baking friends.

Until next time.

XOXO,

Mimi

1 week ago by indulgewithmimi Don't you think all dinner guests should bring macarons? Last year wasn't the best year for me and as we quickly approach the ending of another year, I learned that I could be sad but grateful at the same time. I know people often (incorrectly imho) say, "don't be sad, look at all you've got! Be appreciative." But there's absolutely nothing wrong to be hurting and being appreciative at the same time and in time, when you're ready, that sense of gratitude and appreciation will genuinely outweigh the sadness you felt with a grateful heart this year, wishing a Happy…
1 week ago by indulgewithmimi My version of Pumpkin Spice Cheesecake Macarons. What I really like about it is that the filling doesn't use super sweet icing sugar and it also includes real pumpkin filling instead of just pumpkin spice. Also, the shells are INFUSED with spices too! Just a very lovely flavourful macaron all around. I hope you'll get a chance to read through my recipe development process for this special Fall themed macaron. All on the blog and btw, I also have a NEW PUMPKIN macaron template for you to download too! XOXO, Mimi . . . . . #pumpkinspicemacarons #pumpkinmacarons #macarons #macaronstagram …
2 weeks ago by indulgewithmimi Pumpkin Spice Cheesecake macarons made without icing sugar, artificial colors and flavors. I'm always just a bit troubled when someone tells me my macarons are too cute too eat. I know it's meant to be a nice compliment but with my new recipes the filling should be the highlight so I thought I'd shoot and present these mac babies in a styling that makes you WANT to bite into them recipe coming soon. what do you think?

Chocolate chip cookies understand #ifyougiveamouseacookie it's starting to get cold here in Vancouver and I miss summer so much it's the start of 9 months of continuous Westcoast rain.
