Calissons (Slideshow version)

Calissons : Photo of step #26

Stage 12/12 :

Leave to dry exposed to the air for 2 days, until the royal icing turns hard.

Your calissons are ready.

Remarks

Traditional calissons normally contain candied melon and orange.

If you are in a hurry, rather than waiting for 2 days, you can dry the calissons in a cool oven at 50°C (122°F) until the royal icing forms a crust.
