Assessment Night

Macaroon and truffle assessment night. Off to a bad start as my eggs whites were not stiff enough so the macaroon mix was too slack and was pouring out of the piping bag! but still had time to make a second batch (much better) used the template to pipe them small 3cm across and made 96 shells!! managed to get 24 perfect ones, I've put the rest in the freezer. Lemon macaroons with a lemon buttercream,lemon curd and fresh raspberry centre. Truffles were amaretto coated with amaretti crumbs and a milk chocolate Viennese truffle rolled in cinnamon sugar. Great night. 2 Distinctions. see piccie of truffles.
