French Road Trip Snacks
Ever since I experienced the AWESOMENESS of French macarons, no trip to New York is complete without a visit to MacarOn Café for a dozen of these delicious colorful delights.
On my recent trip, I tried the peanut butter (turquoise), raspberry (pink) & passion fruit chocolate (brown & yellow). Each tasted like heaven (if it exists) & I did not share any of these bitches.
They’re mine, all mine!!!!
Of the nine or so flavors that I have tried today, I have to say that cassis, peanut butter & passion fruit are my favorite. They are actually to die for!!!
Find you some! Get you some! Love you some macarons!!! And no, it’s not macaroons, I’m talking about macarons in case you thought I had it twisted!
Detroit/Ann Arbor French Macaron Options:
Pinwheel Bakery (Ferndale) – They have about 5 flavors & they are $1.25 each.
Cecilia’s Pastries (Ann Arbor) – Sold on Wednesdays at the Ann Arbor Farmers Market. Cecelia has 9 flavors & they are $1.50 each. Lastly, if you’re feeling adventurous, Cecelia also teaches a macaron class. You can get more information here.
Frist, the macaron’s look delicious, and your description of them sounds scrumptious. The photograph brother is pure perfection. The wood and the patina of the wood, playing off the macaron’s is beautiful. Plus the perspective of the shot is on point. Love. Love. Love it.
Great photograph and they do look delicious. I understand your plight with French desserts. I refuse to share them as well. LOL
Oooh, I mispelled them wrong on Flickr. But thanks for correcting me! Thanks for sharing places I can try locally.
I hope they taste great… Now I forgive you! 😉
You da Maann!
Thx for the compliments ladies. This photo makes me hungry for more! Luckily, Ill be in NYC in a few days & can indulge again.
UPDATE!!!!!!!!!
I tried one of your suggestions…Pinwheels Bakery.
The Macarons were very good. Although I don’t have anything to compare them to. But the next time I head up to the University town, I will try the other one you suggested! mmmm Cottage Inn in Ann Arbor does sound good (this is my excuse to drive there)
But THANKS Tafari for sharing the MACARONS!
