He continued: “Export sales make up about five percent of our total business, so it’s quite small but growing, and we’re keen to develop that side of the business. Measure out 480g of icing sugar. Add around ¼ of it into the potato mixture and give it a good stir. At this point, the mixture will become soft and runny. Step 4:

First, you’ll need some white potato (or potatoes, depending on the size of them). I had small potatoes, so I used 2. I weighed them at 140g before washing or peeling. Keep in the freezer until ready to dip. When you are ready to finish the macarons, melt the chocolate.
