Cute Piggy Dark Chocolate Macarons with Indented Features

I couldn't resist giving piggies different expressions, especially the sassy one 🤭


Simple pig macarons filled with dairy-free dark chocolate ganache and chocolate coated crispearls. What's unique about this creation is the use of the technique to create indented features on macaron shells. The nostrils and ear indents were created by waiting for a pliable membrane to form on the piped batter before using a Dresden tool to create the indents.

Filling the macarons!

I used my default Swiss meringue method recipe for these piggies, and edible marker and lustre dust for the eyes and cheeks. 

Please see the reel for the process of making this, especially the indents:
