Add gourmet flavour to your macarons with premium concentrates from Universal Flavours. Our high-quality flavourings are perfect for enhancing both the shells and fillings of your macarons — giving you endless creative options for professional quality results.
Bring your macarons to life with bold, delicious flavours using premium flavour concentrates from Universal Flavours.
1. Make the Macaron Shells
Follow your preferred French, Italian, or Swiss meringue macaron recipe. Only use water-based or PG-based flavour concentrates in the shell to avoid affecting texture.
- Add 1–3 drops of flavour concentrate to your whipped meringue mixture before folding in the almond meal mixture.
2. Make Your Filling
Prepare a buttercream, ganache, or cream cheese-based filling.
Flavouring Ratio: Use 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of concentrate per cup of filling. Mix well and adjust to taste.
3. Assemble the Macarons
Once the shells have cooled completely, pipe your flavoured filling onto one shell and sandwich it with another.
4. Mature for Best Flavour
Place assembled macarons in an airtight container in the fridge for 24–48 hours. This allows the flavours to meld and the texture to perfect.
