This was inspired by the famous "ispahan" raspberry dessert. Why not make it cuter by including a whipped cream/meringue/marshmallow cat :3! I used one 50g pack of Mermaid Puffy air-dry paper clay for this tutorial. I recommend paper clay because it’s cheap, light and has a very nice texture for making macarons. Of course, you can do this project with any type of clay but please use the correct colouring & drying techniques for that material (e.g. don’t mix paint into polymer clay and don’t bake air-dry clay).

The trickiest part was actually making the mint leaves, so I would suggest that beginners leave that out and simply use pre-made cabochons, sprinkles, canes or fruit slices. However if you do want to try making the leaves, I used green air-dry clay pressed very thinly onto jewellery eye pins and textured with a needle tool.
