le macaron

I live in NYC and emailed le macaron to help me surprise my best friend who works in Celebration for her birthday. I received a pleasant email response on the same day saying that they could help me. They went above and beyond to ensure that my best friend received her macarons on her birthday. Unfortunately, I personally have not tasted the macarons, but I would recommend at least giving them a try if you are in the area based on the excellent customer service that I received from afar.

This is one for my Florida Fans! I had a French affair today with a place I never thought I would! Introducing Le macaron! Right in the heart of the town of Celebration. Now you have to understand I’m allergic to coconut, so your traditional «macaroons» I stay clear of. But my son wanted to have a cup of coffee and see this new place, so we stopped in! It is a beautifully decorated whimsical French bistro with a colorful counter of confections, and gelato.
After speaking to the charismatic owner Gregory Guillem from Aix en Provence of France, I found out to my delight these little mouthfuls of heaven do not contain coconut but almond Macarons look like small, round shells and are created from ground almonds and soft meringue. They are also gluten free and these colorful confections are just 80 calories each and come in 20 flavors. They also have Gourmet chocolates, cool and creamy French gelato, croissants and pains aux chocolats to make this the complete sweet nirvana!
We had one of their creamy gelato, coffee and ordered a box of 6 different macarons! Each one was so delectable and unique! My favorite was the Basil White Chocolate, followed closely by the walnut! But I also absolutely loved the Rose and Raspberry and Black Currant! You need to stop by and stay awhile and enjoy life the French way with a cup of tea or coffee and a macaron experience! #lemacaronspastries #celebrationfl

This place is super cute. We came in because we thought it was the hello kitty store but they said it had moved. Good thing my daughter loves macaroons. She was browsing the different ones and choose the lemon. One thing was we were never offered a sample. The next customer that came in was given one without even buying anything. We would have loved to try one and may have even got us to take some home. I think the service should be the same for everyone.

Love the macaroons. So many flavors to choose from and they let you have a free sample. Definitely worth the visit when in town.
