Macarons

Yesterday I got some macarons......it was my first time trying them.....So I couldn't wait to eat them once I got home, ummm....let's say they were really sweet and sugary...If your not a sweet person, I think one is enough for you...But if your are a sweets and sugar type person, you would love them.

I got these macarons from GATEAU HOUSE, here in New Zealand...the one I went to was on Queen street. Well if you are in New Zealand or live here you should check the place out. They make delicious and yum cakes....

The macarons I got

Left to right: Strawberry, Green Tea, Chocolate and Mango

The flavour of each macaron was different....duh, of course it would be...they are different flavoured...well anyway..each macarons sweetness and sugar content was different...

For the Strawberry macaron, it was very sweet, and sugary...I could eat, but took my time because it was really sweet and very sugary..It tasted like strawberry cream..or like those strawberry flavoured pocky sticks, the original kind.

For the Green Tea macaron, I've got one description for it and that it tasted like a Green Tea frappucino...I was like yum, This macaron is my favourite flavour now.

For the chocolate macaron...no different, it tasted like chocolate...and if you have tried chocolate ganache....yeah it tasted like that, sweet but not to sweet.

For the mango macaron, it was okay....the mango taste wasn't strong but you could taste. At least it wasn't sweet as the strawberry macaron.

Besides the taste of the fillings, each macaron shell or biscuit tasted like almond because of the almond meal used in the recipe.
