White Gum Ball Machine Macarons w/ Template

Hi everyone! It’s been quite a while since my last post. I know it looks like I’m slacking but please believe me when I tell you I’ve been a very busy bee working on this new YouTube video tutorial. It’s one of my shortest tutorials at less than 4 min. but surprisingly caused me a lot of headaches! I recently bought a new camera so I can film videos at a much higher quality (4K if you’re into that sort of thing) and didn’t anticipate that the functions were considerably more complex. It took me a while to compile all the footage here but as I learn, I hope I can produce much better videos for you all.

To start off my new 4K video lineup is this Gumball Machine Macaron tutorial. It is such a fun piece that will look great on any dessert table, plus who can resist the amazing taste of a sweet yet salty Reece’s Peanut Butter cup?

You will need to prepare both a white and red batter to make these gumball machines. Both colours use the minimum amount of ingredients that I recommend for baking a single batch of macaron shells so you will have extra red batter leftover. You can use it to make the inverse version – red gumball machines with white lids. Just remember to save some white batter for the lid later.

I really hope you enjoy this new tutorial and I will definitely be back sooner than later now that my camera seems to not mind me as much 🙂

Small Batch of Edible Glue for Applying Gumball

♥ 20 grams icing sugar

♥ 1 1/2 tsp. of meringue powder

♥ water in a spritzer bottle

Combine the dry ingredients in a glass bowl. Spritz the water onto the dry ingredients a little at a time and then blend everything together until you reach a thick consistency. If it’s too runny, add more sugar. A spritzer is great for controlling the amount of water you are adding at one time.
