les macarons

one of my Paris trip highlight was macarons tasting... i have tried 3 world class macarons - Ladurée, Pierre Hermé, and Angelina. i love them all. i'm not macaron expert, i can't do any critiques, i simply love it. tho i love them a lot, I can only take two macarons at the max, they are too sweet to my typical asian taste.

i've tried most of the flavor except for licorice, the charcoal black color does not appeal to me...pistacio, lemon and raspberry are some of my favourite... after trying world famous macarons, i need to work harder to master the technique of making macarons.

i love looking at these colorful little jewels more than eating them. they are stunning and eyes-catching...

happy macarons!

    ya, me too. that's why i can only take 2 in a day. i find macarons with lemony filling are less sweet, i guess the tangy taste takes away the sweetness. i love the sweet tangy aftertaste lingering in your mouth, oh divine! I'm going to NYC next week, i hope i get to go to Laduree. **Muaks**
