Here at La Maison Couture, we’ve always been partial to the little dollop of French heaven that is Le Macaron. Any venture to Harrods never seems complete without a visit to the delectable Laduree Tea Rooms where a veritable array of colour and fragrance never fails to impress.

Apart from being one of the most divine mouthfuls known to woman, macarons make chic gifts for your hostess, are perfect for summer picnic or summer tea parties and lets not forget, that ultimately they make a perfect treat just for you.

We are delighted to report that we have found some utterly magnificent macarons which are now available to buy online. Fortnum & Mason have recently begun offering fresh macarons, which are the perfect meeting point of meringue, almond and creamy filling. Available in a rainbow range of delicious flavours, these dainty macarons are the perfect sweet treat. Presented in a Fortnum’s gift box, their macarons make a lovely gift, with seven, twelve, sixteen or twenty macarons per box.

Alternatively, sneak a peek at the gorgeous mixed box selection  of Macarons and Canneles from La Dinette, or mouth watering  Ganache Chocolate Macarons from Meringues and more…

However and whenever you choose to devour them, these soft, slightly crisp, slightly chewy and 100% mouth watering little gems should be savoured for the treasures that they are. Enjoy…!
