While in Paris for our second wedding anniversary, I quickly fell for the colorful little macarons that filled pastry cases across the city. We won't discuss how many I ate; it was vacation.
Once we returned to Philadelphia, I was so excited to find a French pastry shop that daily made beautiful macarons just a few blocks from our house. But moving to Kansas was another story. Disappointed with the small selection of macaron making shops in my home town, I took to the kitchen to figure out how to make them myself. A few years, two kids, and many ruined batches later, I'm finally pleased with my finished product and want to pass them on to you!
Macarons are perfect as little favors for a party and are a great way to add color to a dessert table. They are endlessly adaptable to event themes and different occasions. Enjoy looking around at some of the standard flavors we have available, and don't hesitate to contact me with your own creative combinations for your next get-together!
