Walking on the wild side

Our need for variation from our popular green tea flavored macaron saw us visiting some pretty wacky flavors. Presenting to you our Saffron and Pistachio Macaron with an intense burst of sunshine color evolved from the inclusion of Iranian saffron strands. Finished off with pistachio buttercream, this baby is the pride and joy of all local spices.

A little Brazilian fiesta anyone?

Our next contender in the line of macarons is our Black Sesame Macaron. A chewy pale grey shell with generous scatter of black grounded black sesame seeds within. One bite will reveal a smooth white sesame flavored buttercream.

Last but not least, Lemons for everyone! Lemon Meringue Tartlets composed of a rich buttery sable dough encasing luscious homemade lemon curd and then crowned with toasted Italian meringue.


Which of these is your favourite? Feel free to drop your comments as well as suggestions for our next kitchen test runs!
