Macarons @ Nicole La Patissiere

After the tasting dinner, Ivy and Mjqueen7e surprised us with some sweets from Nicole La Patissiere.

It was a lovely coincidence that they both bought from there on the same day but at different times.

Macaron Chloe – Chocolate:
The filling for the chocolate was lovely and strong with a heavy cocoa taste.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Macaron Charlotte – Orange:

 

The filling was similar to orange creme and quite citrus and refreshing.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Macaron Citron Praline – Lemon:
The lemon was nice and refreshing with a zesty lemon taste.

Cookies:

 

I did not try this because it was floral flavoured.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Orangette:

 

This was their homemade candied orange peel dipped with dark chocolate.
They were shaped like sticks coated in chocolate and the centre was a bit like jellied orange which had a nice twist.

~Thanks to Ivycwk for these yummy scrummy macarons~

The macarons came in a nice paper bag with a butterfly.

 

Overall their Macarons were really nice and the macaron shells were hard outside and soft and chewy in the centre.

Lemon and caramel:

 

The combination of lemon and caramel was nice because the lemon flavouring gave it nice citrus tones balanced by the caramel.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Apricot:

 

The apricot macaron was nice and fruity with hints of almond.

I was glad when this shop opened but they mostly sold macarons which was slightly disappointing because in other countries they have a cafe too serving beautiful eclairs.

 

 

 

Although I was bored of Macarons I still tried it anyway because there are macaron stores everywhere these days and it is not a delicacy anymore especially when they have macaron classes and everyone can make their own.

Pistachio macaron:

 

 

 

In the end I chose Pistachio. I was pleased the staff actually knew which ones were the sweetest and which one was the least sweetest.
I was tempted to try the lemon but it was risky because i do not like artificial lemon flavours.

The pistachio was delicious and fragrant too!
It literally melts in your melt into liquid!
The sweetness was just right.
