Ever since it opened back in 2013, Olivia Macaron has been my go-to spot to grab my favourite French treats! I love the way these turned out as a rainbow of delightful pastries, with, from top to bottom, red velvet, rose (always my fave!), lemon-basil, almond (close runner up!) and honey-lavender. Not pictured are some of their current seasonal offerings: passion fruit (a local take on Pierre Herme's famous mogador combo that pairs the tart fruit with milk chocolate - I'm allergic to cocoa, so I've never been a fan) and black sesame. What's your ultimate favourite macaron flavour? Please share in the comments and have a wonderful #MacaronMonday! ...
