Macarons. I've always thought the best ones can be found here in Laduree at Harrods. They all look so delicate and pretty and French (and expensive too) in the display that it's hard to make up your mind which flavours to choose. One day Alicia and QKL started raving about having tasted the "best macarons in the world" being found in Zurich, Switzerland. And on a separate occasion, Marketa, who goes to Switzerland often for business trips, also told me the same thing and that got me all curious. Last week -such a sweetie M was- she actually brought back a box for me! From Confiserie Sprungli in Zurich, no less! Aww so sweet of her! They are much smaller than those in Laduree, not bigger than a quail egg. With the delicate crusts covering the soft mousse in the centre, they are also affectionately known as "mousse kisses". Heavenly.
