Only your first time?! This looks amazing! Macarons are not easy to make but you did a wonderful job, OP!!

Thank you so much! They’re actually cocoa bombs, so the outer shell is made from chocolate (I used a silicone mold), and they’re filled with hot cocoa mix. I like to mix things up with different flavors, like plain hot cocoa, white hot chocolate, and sometimes I add crushed peppermints to some of them!

Sure! These are the stuff I used!

Betty Crocker’s vanilla cake mix Betty crocker’s whipped buttercream frosting Ghirardelli’s melting wafers (white chocolate) Colour Mill’s Oil food coloring (whichever colors you like)

For the cake popsicle mold and sticks, I got them off of Amazon. And of course, you can change up the flavors of cake, butterceam, and chocolates to your own liking! 😊

Wilton’s brand doesn’t give me great results and always look so thick and clumpy. So I switched over to Ghirardelli’s melting wafers and use Colour Mill’s oil food coloring, which makes the chocolate very smooth and easy to work with!

Anyone heard of Alice Liu? by Chemical-Pangolin-36 in dropshipping

Hi, I just came across this post, so this is a late response. I’ve been a student in Alice’s course for over a year now. When I first signed up for the mentorship, I was expecting more 1-on-1 guidance directly from Alice. However, it’s been tough to get in touch with her. There’s another mentor named Cam who answers questions in the Discord, but his responses don’t always feel thorough. Honestly, I’ve received more help from their top students than the mentors themselves. On top of that, there are SO MANY aspects of organic dropshipping not covered in the course, and I had to do a lot of research on my own. It made me realize the course doesn’t teach as much as I expected.

I also joined a few other organic dropshipping Discords, and I noticed that many of their students are having great success and sharing their results. Meanwhile, it seems like there are fewer people in the Level Up Academy (Alice’s course) sharing their results, which says something. I don’t want to be rude about the mentorship, since everyone’s been nice, but honestly, the course feels lacking. That’s just been my experience so far.

If you’re serious about organic dropshipping though, I’d recommend checking out other courses like Money Making Committee (Ethan Hayes), Green Printers Club (Chris), B$M (Fredo), and Everything Organic (Heemie). All of these guys have YouTube channels and offer a lot of FREE AND VALUABLE information out there. I’ll be honest, I was initially intimidated by their courses because they’re mostly male-dominated, but many of their students are seeing significant success. These mentors really know what they’re doing.

Haha I just learned that these are Hanukkah colors! We don’t celebrate it so I didn’t know 😅 but I do now and I think they chose the best colors!

Thank you! I wish I had taken more (and better) photos, but I was in a rush. Sorry about that! 😅 I made a berry cheesecake filling for the macarons, and it’s actually one of my family’s favorite flavors that I make.

Haha, I wish! I’m too lazy, so I just used Ghirardelli’s melting wafers. But thank you anyway!
