macarons

In autumn, what is better than treating your taste buds with fine cakes when the weather looks bad. A great French speciality, gourmet patisserie is one of the flagships of Parisian gastronomy.

Among the most famous names are Ladurée, Dalloyau, Gérard Mulot and Pierre Hermé. Their main shops are usually located in central areas of the capital (in the 1st, 6th, 7th and 8th arrondissements) but you can also sample their delights in their shops in local areas. Essential tasting are the maracuja (passion-fruit macaroons at Ladurée or ˝beurre salé˝ at

Pierre Hermé, among so many other flavours.
