Gourmet French Macarons-Book-Giveaway-Frankenstein-Macarons thebearfootbaker.comI met Mindy at a blog conference this year and she is a sweetheart. When she told me she had written a book about Gourmet French Macaroons, I imagined a cute little book filled with recipes and beautiful colored circle macaroons. Boy was I blown away when she pulled out her phone and showed me a picture of the cover of her book. I couldnā€™t wait to get my hands on it and let me tell you it was everything I could have hoped for and more. It includes over 75 recipes and techniques, styling ideas, templates, and decorating tips that give the popular classic French Macaron sandwich cookie a modern and whimsical makeover.Gourmet French Macarons-Book-Giveaway-Chocolate-with-Chocolate-Filling-thebearfootbaker.comRemember when I told you Mindy was a sweetheart?
