Zumbarons

Love the different flavor combinations. Would appreciate more photos especially of each step of the process.

The book makes it easy to make all of his unique flavors. The pictures make it helpful to know what it's to look like

I was very excited to order this book. Adriano Zumbo always struck me as an original when it came to macarons and I was curious to discover and try his unusual recipes. I bake macarons on a weekly basis, so I am familiar with techniques, fillings and the cookie in general.I would recommend Zumbarons for advanced bakers only. First, the basic macaron recipe is not explained very well and worst of all, there are no illustrations for steps to follow. So if you are new to this, just forget about this book! I think it is a huge mistake, there are many intricacies involved when you make macarons and illustrations are a must have. I felt I could bypass this step, but I was surprised to discover that most of the recipes require ingredients I have never heard of: gellan, pandan leaves, inverted sugar, desiccated coconut, iota, kappa... So even though, it is a neat book, I fell like it was a waste of money.If you are looking for a good book that will teach you macarons making basics, try Secrets of Macarons by Jose Marechal. You'll be very happy with it! There are plenty of pictures, nice recipes and troubleshooting info.

a very beautiful book, beautiful photos, I tested the recipe of Italian meringue macaron and it worked. hug for everyone to read
