A macaron is a sweet confectionery made with egg whites, icing sugar, granulated sugar, almond powder or ground almond, and food coloring.

Update: Having tried some macarons in Paris, I wouldn't say there is a world of difference between those and the ones here at Point G.

Added a new close up macaron picture.
ReplyDeleteOne thing that I noticed is that in Paris they also made "large" macarons that were maybe 2-3 times the size of a regular macaron. Maybe they have those somewhere in Montreal, but I just haven't seen them yet.
