Have you ever tried to bake macarons? I nearly went crazy when I tried to bake them. They are very popular on food blogs.

These are made with litchi filling.

If you're interested, some great food blogs:

Went nuts trying to make them. Mine never seem to rise and grow fluffy. They do turn out good as cookies but by macaroon standards....

I also tried too long. It was ridiculous, they just never rose, sometimes they did, then they were empty... But one day something was different and they were right. It was the last batch macarons I made, they made me crazy. So if you went nuts, better let it go. They're good, but not worth it ^^

you might have a point. I think store bought ones use egg powder instead of egg whites. that might be it. :D

I think this really helps much. but do you know where to get that ?? :D

I think it's also helpful to use older egg whites. Just put it in a bowl and store it in the fridge for two days. Í read that this reduces the amount of water, so this helps to make more stable beaten egg whites.

I have no idea how egg powder is made or where you can buy it. It sound about as natural as a square apple. But I saw that tip of leaving the egg whites for 2 days in a macaron recipe book and it did improve matters a bit.

Guess it's store bought for me and my photo needs.
