I decided to go the minimalist route when I was packaging the macaron gifts. This way they were the stars of the show, just as they should be. Aren't they so pretty? I love how they look like little jewels in a box. The flavors I made were lemon, passion fruit, raspberry, pistachio and chocolate.
Some of you know that it was the mysterious macaron that inspired me to start this blog. That was back in August of 2009. Sixteen months and countless failures later, as well as a few triumphs, I would say my skill in macaron-making is a 7 on a scale of 1 to 10. Maybe 7 1/2 if I'm feeling generous.

beautiful macarons! I also have those two problems occasionally...
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI am French and I mooved to USA 7 months ago. Your Parisian Macaroons are really esthetic, bravo ! Would you like to tell me if it exits a bigger boxe for 10(same kind like this one for 5 macaroons)? And another (square form maybe)for 24 macaroons ? Sorry about that but it is really hard for me to exactly know the dimensions in inches...

I checked - that is the biggest they have. They do have a 2 by 2 by 6 that would hold 6 instead of 5 but you will pay twice the price to get one more cookie in the box!
