Macarons for his birthday
Many many years ago, we had this in Paris, back here, I havent really seen a bakery that sells them. But then again, maybe I havent been hitting the right place...
Recently, it looked like it had gain some popularity here, I have seen some places selling it as speciality already!
This time, I got it from a home-baker. The collection was pretty far, at sembawang.
I kept livingstone in suspense as we drove to the 'collection point.
He was quite surprise that we had to travel the distance to collect the macarons, but as he put it into his mouth, he tell me its worth it. haha....
I bought 3 flavours:
1) Mangue - mango macarons with mango puree cream
2) Cafe noisette - hazelnut coffee macarons with hazelnut espresso cream
3) Lychee rose - rose macarons with juicy lychee bits rose petal scented cream, finished with a sprinkle of ground rose petals
we finished 4 within minutes after collection, right in the car! It was yummy! but damn expensive...
the remaining 16 pcs were packed in seperate boxes of 8 like the one above...
love the colors.....
