It's said that the French macaron we know today was invented in the 1830s by Pierre Desfontaines of the French pâtisserie Laduree. It is simple - two merinque discs sandwiched by a layer of buttercream, jam, or ganache.

I'm going to have to add this to my list of things to try (it's long). I had fiddlehead ferns for the first time Saturday night--delish. I would go for Sicilian pistachio myself. Glad you are on the mend and I hope you have a great trip to
London! xxox
Cream puffs and all things pate a choux are popular enough in Japan to have spawned an international chain, complete with hilarious logo.
Oh my... I must try one soon! The colors make them look so yummy.
That's the one I would've eaten first...then the Earl Grey Tea :-) I'd love to go to Little Tokyo!!!

All of them.
first cupcakes, then violent-hued macarons - what will the next sweet craze be?
pistachio for me, every time!
Mrs Kiwi makes a very nice lavender meringue so these sound very nice.
