The first thing you experience when biting into a Parisian Macaron cookie is the light breaking and crunch of the meringue outer shell.
Immediately, following this crunch is the soft inner cookie
Next you experience the intense flavoured filling
A perfectly flavoured Macaron will have a distinct taste based on the flavour it was intended to be. If you can't tell what flavour you are eating without being told then its not Parisian, France quality.
The Macaron should not be so overly sweet that it's un-enjoyable. Macarons are traditionally a sweet treat but the distinct flavour is what you should notice, not the sweetness.
The Macaron cookie should be delicate but not so delicate that it collapses upon being held normally. Many Macarons are made with a weak meringue shells that look good but don't hold up when being eating.
At Say See Bon Patisserie Inc we only use traditional French recipes from France. Our head R&D chef was trained in Paris and learned the original French recipe - so don't be fooled by North American imitators!
