MACARON MONDAYS!
Submit an email about why you love macarons and you may receive a box on us like Elizabeth from Chula Vista, CA!
"Why do I love macarons? Having worked in the restaurant/hospitality industry for years, my husband and I are always on the hunt for food (and wine!) that is good because of pure ingredients and the ability to combine subtle simplicity to create a rich flavour. Sure, we like our comfort food every now and then, but there's something to be said for the right balance that just hits the spot.
This is what's great about French macarons! Rather than being smothered with chocolate, buttered up beyond belief, or crusted with sprinkles or icing, it's the perfect balance of texture and flavour. Crisp on the outside, with a rich, flavourful, and slightly chewy inside, macarons fulfil the craving for sweet without being large and overpowering. Also, it is based on just a few simple ingredients with varied flavours that either become delectable little treats or a complete mess depending on the skill of the pastry chef, so it definitely showcases the creativity and talent of its maker!
I found your blog/website while searching for places online to buy macarons! We are located in Chula Vista, and we saw on Chocolate.com that you're based in San Diego! Was actually hoping to find a physical location we could stop in and get some macarons when we found your blog!"

Macarons the new cupcake? Get out! No, really, get out.
In comparison, the macaron is as popular in France as the chocolate chip cookie is in U.S.A. There is a lot of buzz being created about these delicate confections, but trend they are not.
In the 1830s, macarons were served two-by-two with the addition of jams, liqueurs, and spices. The macaron as it is known today was called the "Gerbet" or the "Paris macaron" and is the creation of Pierre Desfontaines of the French pâtisserie Ladurée,composed of two almond meringue discs filled with a layer of buttercream, jam, or ganache filling.
