Coconut Cream Ganache Preparation
- Gently warm the coconut cream and glucose syrup over low heat until just steaming. Remove from heat, pour over chopped white chocolate, let sit for 5 minutes, then whisk until smooth. Refrigerate for 6-8 hours to set.
Pineapple Confit Preparation
- Whisk granulated sugar and pectin in a saucepan. Combine with warmed pineapple puree over medium heat. Bring to a gentle boil while stirring and add citric acid. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until thickened, then cool in a container.
Macaron Shells Preparation
- Sift almond flour and powdered sugar. Whip room-temperature egg whites until frothy, gradually adding granulated sugar until stiff peaks form. Fold in dry ingredients until no streaks remain.
Pipe and Rest Shells
- Pipe even circles of macaron batter onto parchment-lined baking sheets. Tap sheets to release air bubbles. Let rest for 30-60 minutes until a skin forms.
Bake Shells
- Preheat oven to 315°F (160°C). Bake shells for 15-18 minutes until firm and feet develop. Cool completely on baking sheets.
Assemble Macarons
- Pair up cooled shells, pipe ganache on one, add pineapple confit, and sandwich with another shell. Refrigerate assembled macarons for 10-12 hours.

Notes
Ensure all bowls and tools are completely grease-free for stable meringue. Allow macarons to chill for enhanced flavors.
