French Sweets

I really couldn't mention France without saying something about all of the delectable sweet offerings at the pâtisseries. 

Here is a colorful display of macaroons. You could choose from a variety of flavors from pistachio to raspberry. My father-in-law mentioned these are the equivalent of an American Oreo with a creamy filling in the middle. I would definitely say that one bite of these is far better than any Oreo. The following post will be a how-to tutorial on making your very own sweet sign to display whatever yummy you plan to make.
TIPS:
Maria over at Munchie Monkey recommends the Martha Stewart Recipe. She advises; however, to leave the eggs out over night to get them to room temperature.  When you fold the eggs whites into your mixture be sure you do so very slowly.

One last thing...if you are really serious about making these, invest in a macaroons silicon baking sheet. 
Macaroons tend to stick, and this sheet should help you in releasing these tiny pillows of goodness.

Happy Planning!
