Cat Macarons with Earl Grey Ganache & Salted Dulce De Leche

 I had a request for cat macarons (again!) so I wondered what design should I make this time since I have made various cat designs over the years and prefer not to make exact repeats. I turned to caroline_laura318 (Instagram account) for inspiration because in my opinion, her cat creations represent the cat-titude and playfulness of real cats the best.

Here's my set and I hope I did her work and the real felines justice!


I filled the macarons with Earl Grey white chocolate ganache and salted Dulce De Leche.

You may wonder why my Earl Grey ganache looks so dark when I used white chocolate as the base. It's because I used both Earl Grey powder and loose leaves to impart a strong Earl Grey flavour.

I used my default Swiss meringue method recipe for the macaron shells. Please see the reel for the process as well as recipe for the fillings.

Thank God the macarons were very well received!
