As Bob Ross would say “We don’t make mistakes, just happy little accidents.” And these macaroon cookies that look like balls were definitely a happy accident.
This beautiful tragedy comes from Emma Plummer, who is a baker that specializes in macaroons.

During a recent baking session, Emma tried to make heart-shaped macaroons, and, well, they turned out…

Apparently, it’s very difficult to make heart-shaped baked goods look like hearts, rather than just cookies that look like balls.
I feel like. The first time I made heart shaped ones it was rough pic.twitter.com/GPi3fftMrc

As the tweet gained traction, someone asked if the macaroons were meant for a bake sale. And they were…FOR CHILDREN!
Yep. School bake sale. Gonna bring them anyway to piss off the Karen’s https://t.co/LEfT9T7o05

Another person chimed in to tell a baker who specializes in macaroons how to make macaroons.
All of the “yOu HaD a TeMpLaTe” responses make me actually LOL because 99% of these people have no idea the time and effort that come with making these the right way and how hard they actually are https://t.co/UQIvDioIvl

The tweet, and Emma’s great sense of humor, brought her some opportunities.
I can not believe this is happening to me!!!! I just got into my local coffee shop and someone else wants to purchase 25 DOZEN TO SELL FOR VALENTINES DAY IN THEIR STORE!!!!!!!
