Even macaroons get better in France on St Valentines Day......



It’s a relatively simple confection made with ground almonds, sugar and egg whites but the macaroon has over the years become the cookie of choice throughout France.  




They are delicious and come in as many colours and flavours as your imagination can muster. 


But today, St Valentines day, here in St Malo they take on a romantic twist with the usual round varieties being replaced by heart shaped and raspberry filled deliciousness.


We might not have had roses this morning but we will most definately enjoy one of these which is sitting quite temptingly in our fridge as we write this ......

Happy St Valentines Day ......
