When I think of the macarons, I can't help thinking of all the sites that have tested since I ate the first and what are my favorites.

The first time I tried the macarons was in Laduree in Paris in 1989... Uf! It has already rained. A classmate told me that I had to try them. Try what?... I said. "Macarons, ma Chérie" she said, and took me to the Rue Royalefirst local of Laduree, to try them out.

C71 MACAROONS CHICLE LOLETA INTRO 4The history of macaron them from Ladurée began with Pierre Desfontaines, a cousin of Louis Ernest Ladurée in the middle of the last century. Pierre had the brilliant idea of uniting two shells of macarons and filling them a tasty ganache (or cream).

Recipe has not changed since then and the pastry chefs of the House weigh accurately the almond flour, eggs and sugar so always go with the same texture and flavor.

Finished once they are not for sale until after 48 hours. Thus the macarons balanced taste and chewy texture.

Each season Ladurée honors them creating a new flavor. The new creation is always based on the previous taking into account the colour palette and flavors. The color It is a critical piece of seduction that these cookies have about us.

And it is in my last visit to ParisWhen Ladurée had just out sale for its flavor of 2012 making it match the fashion week in Paris as in recent years. This time was devoted to the House of Lanvin French fashion and with a super flavor: bubble gum!. In fact, I think there is the same recipe posted (at least AFAIK in Spanish)

I hope you like them as much as my son and his friends, but I warn you, they will give you desire to make bubbles with them and you can not...

Continue adding meringue to our colored mixture. The mixture should not be very smooth or very hard, so if we make a curl with a spatula, keep the form without moving or get rid. If before have incorporated all of the merengue had reached that point, it's not necessary to incorporate it all, since it is preferable that the dough is a little hard to be too smooth. I weighed the ingredients perfectly and joined all of the merengue.
