This bake came about because I wanted something simple to use up my leftover salted Dulce De Leche and Earl Grey ganache from my cat macaron bake. The design is simple enough for bakers who can't manage piping characters because you only need to pipe circles for these cute red pandas!
I used my default French method recipe that's in my Creative Baking: Macaron Basics book (but added earl grey tea powder) and one portion is enough to make all the macarons in the picture below.
I used white chocolate, Earl grey tea powder and chocolate Crispearls for decorating the red panda face. No edible markers or royal icing were used!

Just to share a photo of the real life cutie we saw at the zoo recently!
