Yep the French Macaroons. She got the Adrian Zumbo recipe book and was making them from that. I think she tried the macaroons before she added the filling, which prbably would have lead to them tasting quite almondy cause that's all she was eating. Anyway, I think she was going to give them a try again and see how they went She said the consistency and texture was fine, it was just the almond taste.
