Step 18
Crush a small amount of white pastel with a soft brush on the edge.
In this case I haven’t colored the center.
We have completed most of the base of the macaroons and now we are going back to the baked raspberries and little hearts.
Step 19
Remove all the raspberries from the silicone molds.
Since I made the berries in transparent red in the beginning, now I color them with a very small amount of red oil paint.
Step 20
Before coloring the berries, try your best to remove the oil paint on the paper, like sweeping the ground with a broom.
You apply only the remaining red oil paint to the berries. If you have made a specific raspberry color, you can skip this step.
NOTE: If you are like me, using the oil paint to color the berries, please wait till they are dried then continue the steps of assembling.
Step 21
Make sure the shapes of these little hearts are perfect before decorating. Smooth the edges.
Step 22
Retrieve your round cut "macaroon" pieces.
Apply a small amount of Fimo Liquid on macaroon bases.
