Laduree has gained a name for their little fluffs of heaven. These babies don't come cheap, probably because they are sold at the famed Harrods. Besides Pierre Herme's Macarons, Laduree is said to be one of the best in the world.

Assorted Flavors of Macarons from Laduree

And so a very kind angel made a special trip to Harrods London, to buy me these little babies.. The verdict?They were gorgeous. The filling of these macarons were not at all scarce. And the texture, screams perfection. What made me even more delighted was the fact that they tasted exactly like those out of my very own oven!! Despite it being from Harrods, I was also delighted to see that the macarons were not perfectly round, or perfectly sculpted. It shows that fine taste, truly precedes looks. This simply means that I have truly mastered the art of making authentic Parisian macarons.

Imperfections, is only what the eyes see, but not what the mouth tastes!

Filling Galore..

The only thing I could fault is the abundance of Marzipan in their filling which made it a little grainy. Marzipan is added to fillings to pump up the volume so that you don't have to use more of the actual expensive stuff! For instance, Chocolate!
I can finally rest in peace. I sell macarons that rival those from Laduree. Next stop, Pierre Herme. Anyone going to Paris anytime soon? :D

Pretty packaging! I'm saving these for sentimental sake.
