Macaroons all the way !!!



Macaroons are the French confectionery items made of cookie and filling. The filling or frosting is sandwiched between two flavoured cookies. I first got to know about them through Masterchef Australia where the contestants had to rebuild Adriano Zumbo's Macaroon tower. Was completely fascinated by the enormous structure created by him.

It actually took me a while to get my teeth over the Macaroons. In this vacation we went to Palladium Mall to have LE 15 Macaroons. It is owned by Pooja Bhingra. LE 15 PATISSERIE is a French style chocolate and pastry shop..
The items there are a bit expensive like the little chocolate tart is of Rs. 95 and a Macaroon will cost you Rs. 60 per piece. But anyways it is totally worth it !!! When i had the first bite I was like YUMMMM... Unlike its hard, crispy appearance, it is really light, delicate and mouth-melting with a little crisp at the top.
They had many flavours, we had PASSION FRUIT and COFFEE MACAROON..
I am so happy we had it. It was a delightful experience. It has inspired me to make my own Macaroon and I am gonna do it real soon...
 
















LE 15 has a huge variety of cup cakes as well which look very cute and tempting.

Oh my my! These look so delicious! I should and will visit. Btw, do they sell "homemade macroons"? I think I tried them once, and were coconut filled. But I do want to try the rose macroon.
Kepp blogging!
