Ingredients

Instructions

  • Brush a tiny amount of almond extract on the back of the paper letters so that they stick to the macaron well. To ensure crisp lettering, gently press down on the edges to prevent overspray. This helps define the letters and keeps the gradient within the designated areas.
  • Starting with the lightest color, hold the color mist spray about 6-8 inches away from the macaron and apply a light mist.
  • Gradually move to the darker colors, allowing each layer to dry slightly to achieve a smooth transition before applying the next. The colors will automatically blend to create a smooth gradient effect.
  • Gently peel away the paper letter.
