The moment I knew that Baroque will have the
Macarons master class on Sunday, I was quietly screaming with myself and forwarded an information to Kimmy and Heidi immediately. We booked for the 27th July class.

We entered into the bistro and were invited to sit at the table. One lady was sitting in front of me and looked so familiar, Oh dear,
Lorraine ! I started the class with a beautiful cappuccino.

Amazingly beautiful cakes, I definitely come back to try.
At first, we were taught how to make chocolate ganache and caramel for the filling. Then chef taught us how to make the macarons shells.

Piping the shells
Happy time always goes fast, I felt like a few mins then it was a break time. We ordered our lunch from the menu.

Wow, look at all those pretty macarons! Sounds like it was well worth it =D
Could I ask how much have you paid for this course ka?
Aww Ja, they look fantastic. I am not a huge macaron fan but I am happy that it was a success and you enjoyed the day. nice one!
i am so doing this course!! looks like you had heaps of fun :)
looks like lots of fun Ja ! I think I should consider attending one of the class, doesn't hurt to refresh my macaron skills :D
those macarons look amazingly perfect. did you get salted caramel and a rosewater. they were my favourite flavours i tried from baroque :-)
missklicious : very well worth :)
ice : $220 for a course ka
Amy : I had never like macarons before I tried the one from here and Zumbo.. but I prefer Baroque's texture, super nice.
panda : yeah, very fun.. we made the salted caramel and chocolate flavour.. if u do other flavour, can we swap the recipe? :P
Monica : go go, I am so glad I took the class
Simon : I love the salted caramel but haven't tried the rosewater yet.. if u like it, I will try soon.. It is pricey for $2.50 a piece but the quality is the one you are willing to pay for
Oooh I'm so very jealous.. this class looks like so much fun! :D
