I made these Minion macaron cake toppers for Susanne's elder daughter's birthday a while back :).
This was a bake done concurrently with the Gudetama coconut macarons using a reduced-sugar Swiss method recipe so you may refer to that post for details of the recipe.
Just to share some photos of the process...
A darker blue was used for the overalls so that I can paint over lighter blue on the baked shells to create a denim-like texture. The paint was made by dissolving blue and white gel food colouring in some vodka. I painted some streaks or highlights on the overalls to create the denim texture. The other details were added on using royal icing or edible marker.
It brought a smile to my face to know that the little girl loved the macarons very much :)
With lots of love,

Piping the shells!

Filling the shells with coconut white chocolate ganache.
