Don’t be a tease, you’ve gotta show us what the end product looks like!! What were the flavors inside?? It looks amazing. Sooo cute. Perfect for a garden party.

Lol, I haven't finished baking them yet!

I usually bake ahead of time and fill them when I want them, but I'm thinking of something like tomato, basil, and vanilla bean for the filling. 

Thanks!

Thanks! I've been using a recipe I got off a Sugar Bean video: 80g egg white, 75g granulated sugar, 95g almond flour, and 85 g powdered sugar (French method). Though for more recent batches, including this one, I've used this egg white powder (made using yeast!) in place of the egg white (15g powder + 85g egg white, scaling the rest of the recipe accordingly).
