My second macaron! and third.... fourth.. fifth....and more!

*sigh* I really should find something interesting to write about to fill these gaps in between when I treat myself to some unealthy and exciting food... but alas I feel my mid-week calorie counting diet would bore the pants off you!

Luckily however I have chosen this saturday as a good day to have a few treats.

My first port of call?

Macarons!

Yes ever since trying my first at the rocks a few weeks ago I have, of course, wanted more.

So I popped down to the lindt chocolate cafe near my work to buy this beautiful bag of goodies.

I am such a sucker for packaging, and lindt certainly deliver on packaging =) the bag is actually embossed, not just printed on, embossed!

I was very excited to see the lindt macarons were much bigger than the last ones i had tried. MUCH MUCH bigger in fact!

There were many delicious flavours, I chose coconut, pistachio,peach, rose,vanilla, and milk chocolate. There was a couple of other flavours, champagne passionfruit strawberry blueberry and hazlenut but im not really a fan of fruit flavoured things, and well, I felt I had enough =)

When it came to tasting I was a little disappointed....

The peach and coconut both had very fake flavours, I only had a small bite of these and graciously offered them to my boyfriend to finish.

The pistachio tasted nothing like pistachio which was a shame, but it was sweet and white chocolatey, which was not bad, but unfortunately the roselli and vanilla also had similar tastes.

No strong flavour just alot of sugar and white chocolate.

The milk chocolate one was strong and chocolatey, and rather reminded me of a brownie.

his was my favourite simply because it had a distinct flavour, and wasnt as overpoweringly sweet as the others.

So far the macarons I had at the rocks are definately winning in taste, but lindt win in value as their macarons are huge!

More tasting is definately required to find the perfect macaron....
