oui, oui!

When it comes to macarons at Laduree, the answer has to be “yes, please!”  I finally got to visit for the first time since they opened in the fall, and found the space to be small but charming.  They do not allow many photos so all of these were taken with my phone. 

They’ve recently started an advertising with Hello Kitty, so you could find little bits of that adorable kitten all over the store.

Inside, the confections just begin with their famous macaron.  Teas, jams, chocolates and other goodies abound.  All packaged in decadent pastel perfection.  My little girl is partial to their vanilla tea.

   Of course, we couldn’t leave empty handed.  

Isn’t the packaging so pretty?    

Their world famous macaron … oh, my yum!

 

A few non-fattening treats…

This adorable key chain, which I first saw on the The Buzz just last week. 

And this sweet macaron topped pen.  So cute, right?   Of course, the highlight was definitely the macarons.  Try the violet for sure – I thought it would be strange, but it was so good.  

If you’re in New York City, I definitely recommend Laduree for a little taste of Paris on the Upper East Side.  

Best,
