Sainsburys Macarroon Mixes

[KarrenS79]

Anyone tried them? i made both flavours and they come out looking like crispy blobs :(

Nope haven't tried the mixes, apparently they don't work. If you're as proficient cook give them a go yourself, this guy's website is essential foodnouveau.com/2010/03/29/destinations/europe/france/how-to-make-macarons-a-detailed-illustrated-step-by-step-recipe/

They are really tricky to get right (took me 7 attempts) but when you do you feel very smug!
