A delicious treat, or, two...


Having attempted macarons myself and the work that goes into them, i realised i may as well just purchase these from the experts... Fortunately one of the Adriano ZumBo patisseries are just a few mins away from our home {whilst i suspect my waistline does not like this too much}. We choose mint and chestnut, strawberries and cream, vanilla and salted caramel.... Just too delicious. The salted caramel are my favourite, i can never, ever seem to get enough of caramel!

  2. Kellie you made me laugh... a few weekends ago I decided I was going to attempt macarons but after my fifth read through the recipe I decided against it! Way, way too hard! These ones look so delicious... yum!

    I've got the coffee machine on now - I've not attempted to make them, though thought at some stage I would.

    They are quite the trend now aren't they.

    have a great moment to yourself with the caramel one and a cup of tea or coffee.

    have a lovely day ahead

  10. Oh yum! I was so excited to be able to visit one of the stores earlier this year. I'm sort of glad I don't live near one - it would be a disaster! Too many lovely treats to eat :)
    Ps I'm having a giveaway you might like :)

  13. What delightful colorful treats and photography! I love Macaroons... when we were visiting my Mom's Country of North Wales they made the most delicious ones with Rice Paper underneath each and an Almond on top... difficult to find them fresh here in the States.
    Your Photos are so cheerful and colorful, Love it!

  17. Hi Kellie..after watching all Adrianno's TV series showing how he makes them all..I won the DVD..I do envy you having a store nearby! I think if there was one near me I'd just have to try them all one by one.

  18. I've attempted them once myself and it's definitely easier to buy some from the experts! These look wonderful, Kellie ~ I'd love to try some of Adriano's sometime.

  19. I love salted caramel too! Another great place for macarons is Baroque in The Rocks or La Renaissance Patisserie, also in The Rocks (same owners). Scrumptious!

  21. oh, this is on the summer list, to learn how to make these.. is it really a lot of work? Hmm.. those ones do look awfully good :)

  22. These look so good. I almost bought a cookbook for macaroons but decided they were too much work and I would probably end up frustrated! xo
