“It is the sweet, simple things of life which are the real ones after all.” – Laura Ingalls Wilder
Ever since my first visit to France in 2010, I have been obsessed with macarons. After trying my first one at the famed Laduree in Paris, I fell in love with the delicate sweetness of these charming desserts. For years finding macarons near where I live was pretty much impossible. Even for our wedding, my husband and I didn’t want a cake, but a tower of macarons. At the time, I could only find one pastry chef who could deliver – Shelby’s Sweet Shoppe. Now I see so many places offering macarons, which can be dangerous for my sweet tooth. Not only are macarons tasty, but they look darling – so why not put them on a dress?
