About two years ago I had the idea that Jack and I could start a food blog together. I thought it would be fun to try new things and document our highs and inevitable lows. On my list of foods that I thought would be “fun” to tackle: macarons. We both love them… good ones are often hard to find… so we have to make them ourselves.

Matcha Macarons | No-cook Sugar Shell Recipe

Fast forward to now…that macaron project still needs to happen. Mostly because I knew it would probably end in a tantrum and a few tears. Secondly and most importantly – we made a macaron friend!

Nikita from Hello! Macaron works with Jack as a computer animator during the day and is an amazing macaron maker in the evenings/weekends. She started shipping her creations home from the office and I am now totally hooked. They have that perfect crunch on the outside and a soft chewy inside. Ladurée craving solved.

This past weekend she came over and made a batch in our kitchen so we could share them here with all of you. (And by share I mean you only get to see the pictures we got to sit back and eat all those delicious macarons – sorry!). It takes her about 4 hours from start to finish. She says she enjoys the process because it requires precise technique and patience.
