Dan's Creme Egg Macarons

Join the brilliant Dan Beasley Harling (GBBO, series 9) live from London who will teach you to create this perfect Easter treat, the Creme Egg Macaron! During the class Dan will guide you through making the delicious chocolate macaron base, piping perfectly into egg shapes, plus whipping up your very own fondant creme and ganache. 

The class starts at 5pm UK on Saturday 3rd April and all you need is access to Zoom via a computer, an iPad or a phone and you'll be connected! We’ll start off the class with an introductory welcome and some background from Dan's time on TV, before we ask you to put on your aprons & bake along as you watch Dan demonstrate all the skills required to make this favourite treat. Our class will take around 2 hours as we bake our masterpieces, before you can tuck into the fruits of your labour all whilst hearing fantastic memories and stories from Dan.
