Have you heard about Ruby Chocolate? It is chocolate made by Callebaut. When I saw this chocolate for the first time, pink color really got my attention. And wanted to develop recipe for macarons. My Ruby Chocolate macarons are made with Ruby Chocolate ganache. For the shells color I’ve used shades of pink and purple.

Ingredients for Ruby Chocolate ganache
- Ruby chocolate
- mixed berries puree
- lemon juice. Important ingredient, do not skip it.
- glucose syrup
How to make Ruby Chocolate ganache
First, you need to make puree from mixed berries. I used frozen berries from my grocery store. Check here how to make fruit puree. You can also use store bought berries puree for this recipe. I prefer to make my own.
Tip from Marina: Lemon juice will enhance color of ganache.
In the small saucepan heat mixed berry puree and glucose syrup till just begins to simmer. Do not boil! Pour the warm mixture over Ruby Chocolate and let sit for a minute. Mix with the spatula. After that, add lemon juice and emulsify with the hand blender. Transfer into glass container and cover with plastic wrap “to contact”. Let set for at least 8- 10 hours (or overnight). When you are ready to fill macarons, transfer ganache into pipping bag with a round tip.
How to assemble macarons
Pipe a generous amount of Ruby Chocolate ganache onto bottom of half the cookies and top with other half (different color) to make sandwiches. Let filled macarons mature overnight in the airtight container before serving. This is important step, do not skip it!
How to store
Store Ruby Chocolate macarons in air-tight container in the fridge for 2-3 days. You can also freeze filled macarons for up to 6 months.
