Note to anyone making macaroons, if you buy your ground almonds at bulk barn give them a spin through a food processor first before using them. Doing so will ensure a smoother look to your macaroons, like the ones in the header(those are the ones I made in school) compared to the lumpy look that I ended up having.
So I've made macaroons before but never a tower, it seems to be a new trend that I've been seeing. Anyways I decided to give it a go for my dads birthday. All in all it was pretty easy, I made 103 macaroons thinking it would cover the whole thing but nope it didn't. I would've just cut the bottom of the cone but I paid so much for it I just couldn't do it so I fixed the problem another way.
