Attack of the Macawrongs

Today is “reveal day” for the Daring Bakers Challenge, but before I give you the goods, I’m bringing you the Macawrongs!!! [Addendum: The good macarons for the Daring Bakers Challenge is  posted here.]

Ahh…in the spirit of our #GreatHallowTweet — go check out the pumpkin sidebar!

I’ve found such great pleasure over the fact that the botched macarons have lives of their own. If you’re making macarons and you have a bad batch, try dressing them up for halloween. We can all make fun of ourselves and play with our food sometimes. :-)

Check out my featured criminal for the day:

Macawrongs

He was caught taunting the others:

I used: nutella eyes and red food color painted with a toothpick. That’s all there is to it — the macarons were responsible for their own ugliness. Woohoo.

    Oh my gosh Joy, you’re ridiculous. And that’s the highest compliment I can give someone :) So funny!! Seriously, though, I love that you put a positive spin on a less-than-ideal outcome.
