I love a macaron. These gorgeous confections made of meringue and almond flour are often come in pretty pastel colours and are infused with different flavours.
They are the ultimate French style tea time treat. You can imagine Marie Antoinette tucking into them as she tried on different coloured petticoats and giggled with her girlfriends at Versailles.
This summer British firm Hilton Macarons have produced a strawberry themed box, inspired by the traditional strawberry and cream treats at Wimbledon.
The new strawberry blends in this gift box include Strawberry & Matcha, Strawberry Bakewell, Strawberry & Yuzu, Strawberry & Pink Peppercorn, Strawberry & Pimms, and Strawberries & Cream.
The colours and flavours are delicious – light, fresh and moreish with a mix of complementary tastes in every bite. And they come in a darling gift box in lilac. What’s not to like?
