My husband brought these back from Paris. First time I tasted macaroons ~nice~ and from France!
Miniature version in comparison with actual size.
These were my second attempt at French macaroons. The first batch were a bit of a disaster. I managed to salvage about a quarter of them.
This time they came out perfectly! I'm so pleased. They're vanilla and rose flavour.
Divine. It is impossible to go to Rome, without eating a ‘gelato’. I even got a bonus feature: the pink #macaroon. Delicious! - Did you know that originally the Macarons were produced in the Venetian monasteries ever since the VIII century A.D. In 1792, macarons began to gain fame when two Carmelite nuns, seeking asylum in Nancy during the French Revolution, baked and sold the macaron cookies in order to pay for their housing. These nuns became known as the “Macaron Sisters”. (bij Vale Gelato)

New girl, Blueberry Macaroon <3 My shy (but bossy!!!) little girl! ^_^ I call her Roo. I tried some new eyebrow and lip techniques with her, and I think they turned out well!
Los macaroons son dulces densos hechos con almendra y clara de huevo o con una pasta de almendra gruesa. Se confunden a menudo con los dulces franceses llamados macarons, con los que no tienen relación alguna. De hecho, la palabra procede de maccarone, término empleado regionalmente en Italia para aludir a los macarrones, debido a que la pasta de almendra tiene el mismo color.

The English word macaroon and French macaron come from the Italian maccarone or maccherone. This word is itself derived from ammaccare, meaning to bruise used here in reference to the almond paste which is the principal ingredient
