Pink macarons are a soft, delicate color of macaron.
Pink macarons can be colored using a little pink gel food coloring or pink powdered food coloring.
The intensity of the color depends on how much food coloring you put in.
The food coloring will need to be stretched to cover the entire meringue that you’re adding to your macarons to make the shells.
Therefore, make sure you put more food coloring than you think you’ll need if you’re going for a vibrant pink color.
You can even shape your pink macarons into a heart to make them look a little more special if you’re making them for a gift.
