Macaron christmas tree. To assemble the tree pipe a small amount of buttercream on the underside of each macaron. This macaron christmas tree brings the spirit of french tea to life during the holidays. Starting from the bottom work your way around the cone i did mine from the side in any colour order because i am lazy but you can two tone yours. The best christmas cookie recipe.

The hardest part is finding or making french macarons that are slightly smaller than the standard size so that they fit on a small cone. Alternate with the red and green macarons wrapping the whole cone until it s completely covered. The macarons here are flavored with a tea infused buttercream. Preheat oven to 300 degrees.

Glue your cone on a thick cardboard base. You will need to have your filled macarons here. Pipe the filling to match macaron shells and sandwich them. Pipe the trunk first and then start from the bottom of the tree and go back and forth to the very top of it.

Starting from the base stick macarons to your foam cone. Pipe macaron shells on the baking sheet following the christmas tree template.
