Coloring Delicate French Pastries

When coloring these bakery treats, you can experiment with soft pastel shades to match traditional flavors. A classic almond meringue shell often features light pink for raspberry, pale green for pistachio, or soft yellow for lemon. The ruffled edges, known as the macaron feet, can be shaded slightly darker to give the cookies a realistic baked texture. If you are working on the elegant still-life arrangements, consider using a white colored pencil to add a subtle highlight to the smooth, domed tops of the pastries.
