I was asked to make some farm animal themed bakes for a friend hosting a coffee morning in aid of Compassion in World Farming. They are the leading organisation in farm welfare and therefore she asked me to try my best to use free range and organic ingredients.
In the end I decided to go for macarons as they are a nice easy thing to pick up and eat at a coffee morning (there is nothing worse that trying to mingle while shoving a huge a piece of cake in your face). The macaron shells contain eggs from Over Langshaw Farm in the Scottish Borders and the chocolate ganache filling was made from cream from Clyde Organics and Green and Blacks chocolate.
These are precious! Macarons are on my list of new things to try, hopefully very soon! Any quick tips you could give me?

Thank you so much! 🙂 Macarons can be tricky little things to master, but my best advice is to persevere and keep practising. Also always use gel or powdered food colouring to colour your shells- liquid is the arch enemy of the macaron! Good Luck!
