In case you don't know what I'm talking about, let me clarify. Macaroons are those lumpy coconut cookies that are basically just coconut held together with egg whites and sugar. Macarons, however, are tiny sandwich cookies that are made with almond paste and egg white, and it you're really lucky with some other interesting flavors.
Last week, I opened a box of the most adorable and delicious macarons I've ever tasted. They're made by Little Oven and they're not cheap. They are $20 per dozen. But they are such a delicious treat. I loved the guava, pistachio and chocolate, but the caramel fleur de sel may be my favorite. The only one I did not love was the rose -- mainly because I couldn't detect the rose flavoring.
These sweet little bites would be absolutely perfect for a wedding or shower, or for a special someone who needs a little sweet treat. Order them online, or give the company a call at 718-440-9438.
