Tools and Equipment

Avid bakers will likely have most of the equipment needed to make french macarons. If you're a more casual home baker, however, you might need to stock up on a thing or two.

• Silicon mat or parchment paper: Personally, I've had success with a Silpat, but many baking pros prefer parchment paper.
• Half-sheet pans: A reliable baking pan is needed to make macarons.
• Piping tip: Use a round decorating tip such as a no. 1A piping tip.
• Pastry bag: You can use disposable patry bags, reusable pastry bags, or you can even use a gallon-size Ziploc in a pinch.
• Mixer: I use a KitchenAid stand mixer in Empire Red, but you can use any electric mixer.
• Sifter: A handcrank sifter or a basic mesh sifter are important tools for sifting the almond flour.

Storage

Store in a dry airtight container in a single layer. Store in the fridge for 3-5 days or in the freezer for up to one month.

Troubleshooting Tips

Macarons are no walk in the park. Can I use parchment paper? What pastry tip should I use? When should I add food coloring?

Lucky for you (and me!) Food Nouveau has a wonderful resource, a macaron troubleshooting guide with useful tips and advice.
