Is there egg in macarons?

Keeping this in view, what is a macaron made of?
A macaron is made by combining icing sugar and ground almonds into a fine mixture. In a separate bowl, egg whites are beaten to a meringue-like consistency. The two elements are then folded together until they are the consistency of "shaving foam", and then are piped, left to form a skin, and baked.
Secondly, is there dairy in macarons? The crispy shells have no dairy in them--only almonds, egg whites, sugar and coloring. It's the filling you need to be careful of--the creamy fillings could certainly have cream, particularly chocolate ganache.
Similarly, it is asked, can you make macarons with cold eggs?
Crack the cold egg into a small non-plastic bowl. Separate egg whites, making sure that you leave no traces of egg yolks. You'll find that egg whites can weigh a little less after a few days of dehydration in the fridge. So, in my best macaron recipe, measure out the egg whites BEFORE aging it.
