It is the base of macarons. Use fine-grind and skinless almond flour to have a non-gritty surface for the macaron shell.
VANILLA ESSENCE:
We use this to enhance the flavor of chocolate.
EGG WHITES:
A mandatory ingredient to make the macarons. Bring the egg whites to the normal surrounding temperature before using.
SALT:
The addition of a very small amount of salt balances & multiplies the chocolate flavor
BESTI POWDERED & CRYSTALLIZED MONK FRUIT ALLULOSE BLEND:
Use the combo of both crystallized & powdered versions of the sweetener. Try to use the mentioned one as there is a high chance that other sweeteners may crystallize.

We make the frosting using heavy cream. Go for coconut cream for a dairy-free option.

Choc Zero provides every type of sugar-free chocolate chip. You may use white, milk, or dark chips of chocolate. These chocolate chips melt well so they are convenient to use.
