In the middle of the 20th century, Pierre Desfontaines, cousin of Louis Ernest Ladur e, created the first Ladur e macaron by having the genius to stick two macaron cookies together and fill them with a flavorful ganache. Ever since then, the preparation has stayed the same. Each season Ladur e celebrates this little round cake that’s crispy outside and soft inside, a perfect balance of aromas and textures, by creating new flavors. Each year the palette of flavors and colors grows, from the classic chocolate or raspberry to festive macarons, exotic flavors for certain destinations, fashion designers, perfumes etc. This book presents each of the 80 Ladur e macarons, their aromas, inspirations, trend books and of course all of the recipes to make them at home. At the end of the book there is a practical, step-by-step section to show exactly how Ladur e’s chefs make the cookies and the ganache fillings so you can be sure to succeed in making them too.
