Macarons... la suite, et pas la fin

As promised, macarons from Pierre Hermé!

 Chocolat - Chocolat pure origine
Venezuela Porcelana

Mogador - Chocolat au lait et
fruits de la passion

Mosaïc - Pistache & Griottine
I chose this one, mostly because it looked pretty (again, I know).
It has pink glitters sprinkled all over. Don' worry, your tongue will not keep sparkling all day after eating one.

They have around 16 different tastes, including some seasonals. There're some other one I'd like to taste and I discovered they also make ice cream that doesn't look bad. :)
Speaking of ice cream, as soon as the temperatures would go up a bit, I'll have to go get italian ice cream at Amorino!

Today's dessert

Spring is finally here! And some new macarons from Jean Paul Hévin.

All macarons from Hévin are mixed of chocolat with a flavor.
 orange/ ginger
wild strawberries
passion fruit

I didn't eat them all, I had the "wild strawberries". I didn't noticed the strawberry flavor. Got tempted by its pinkish color. Will not buy again.
My colleagues had the other two, both were good. But I heard the best passion flavor macaron is from Hermé. I promise to go there soon and bring back some nice ones to lure you.
