A Taste of France at Home

One thing I love the most about France is macarons. Made correctly, they really are a sweet little party in your mouth - and they're almost impossible to find here in Adelaide. I bought a macaron recipe book in France and after a little time spent translating, Grant and I decided to bake some of our own.

They were pretty tasty, but don't take our word for it. There was taste-testers lining up for them and the batch of 40 didn't last long (even the dodgy ones got eaten).

  1. Wow, your macaroons look absolutely perfect! I could never make them myself but your post is inspiring to bake again :)
