Colourful Macarons
Perhaps
it is the bright, cheerful
colours, the adorable bite-size, or
most probably the scrumptious
crisp-chewy texture, but it’s hard
to resist the tiny, delicate pastries
that are macarons. These little
sandwiches of buttercream or
ganache filling pressed between
two meringue disks can be found
in traditional flavours such as
Chocolate, Vanilla and Strawberry,
or even daring concoctions such as
Red Bean and Macha (green tea).
But don’t be fooled by these tiny
bites as baking them can be quite
a challenge. If baking is not your
thing, then you’ll be glad to know
that a classic stone-oven bakery
known as Levain Boulangerie &
Patisserie that’s located off Jalan
Imbi offers row after rows of pretty
macarons to choose from and set
hearts a-flutter.
