As a lover of anything and everything coconut, I was intrigued each time I would see a photo or baking blog post about french macarons.
Pamplemousse Patisserie & Cafe’
They didn’t look like the type of macaroon that I had devoured on numerous occasions, but the light texture and bright colors certainly got my attention. A few months ago, a friend of mine was fortunate enough to be gifted a box and was kind enough to give me a few to taste. Oh my! Talk about delicious! As described on the Pamplemousse website: Crunchy and crisp on the outside, while chewy and flavorful on the inside, a French Macaron is a sandwich-like pastry made with two almond meringue cookies filled with butter cream. Can you say, YUM?! What a perfect idea for wedding favors!

French macarons can come in various sizes too so the bride should always find macarons that meet her budget.
YUM!! They look delish!
