Macarons can inspire an obsession that cannot easily be shaken. Obviously I am hooked! Parisian macarons… I love these airy meringue sandwiches with a smooth domed top and bottom and a light filling, mildly moist, that easily melt in the mouth. They’re crunchy on the outside with chewiness on the inside. Cute as can be, they capture the elegance of Paris.
They’re stylish, they’re fun – a combination of textures and flavors that has no equal – the selection is mind blowing! A gazilion of dazzling colors and flavors of perfection! They’re ethereal, indulgent and highly addictive.
I adore Parisian macarons because they explode with flavor (jasmine, vanilla, cassis, lemon, chocolate, green tea…). Each and every one has different characteristics, sweet and floral, bittersweet, salty, sweet and sour.
But what I love the most are the colors. The color palette is endless – all colors you could wish for, bright, pastel, delicate colors, from passionate red to tender pink, from quiet beige to cheery yellow, confident blue, royal purple, graceful lavender…. Each colorful little gem explodes with flavor.
My absolute favorite is lavender & mint – love the taste, adore the color!!!
