I'm in love with this beautiful cookies at a first bite, as you all know French macaron is really hard to make, tricky and moody But as long as you know the oven temperature and not over mixed the batter most of the time it came out perfectly, as a restaurant owner at BoBoKo Indonesian Cafe I have to make this "prettylicious" French macaron three times a week. Our customers was surprise they found a french macaron in Indonesian restaurant, I love to tell the story why there is French macarons in our cafe if they ask about it.
