Since Mommy can't actually eat cake anymore, she went down to Ladurée to buy herself some 'Celebration Macarons' in honour of quitting her job today...
Amongst her usual assortment of Vanilla, Orange Blossom and Salted Caramel, Mommy decided to venture outside the box, and try one of Ladurée's signature summer varieties, Green Apple...
Now, this easily could have been a disaster... If it were too jammy, or too creamy, it wouldn't achieve that tart yet tangy quality that make green apples refreshing on a summer day, and may as well have come from the bottom of a jar of penny sweets... But these Parisian Pastry Chef's are no amateurs; not only did they achieve the perfect flavour sensation, but have also managed to lend a sense of crispness to what is essentially almonds and egg whites. At first, I thought I was eating a green apple...
Needless to say, for the rest of the summer, I only want Mommy to buy me these, unless they suddenly come up with Cat Food or Chicken flavours!!!
