A little angel showered me with some macarons and canelés from SALON DE THE de Joël Robuchon. Thank you! These cuties made my day :)
The packaging was simple and considerate. There was an ice pack attached to the plastic box to keep the macarons cool, and inside the plastic box there was a pack of desiccants to keep the macarons dry. Each macaron rests snuggly within its own square, and none were bruised (before they met my teeth).
The traffic light trio: lemon, rose, and pistachio.
My favorite was, but of course, pistachio.
Next up, the ever-so-elegant rose.
Zesty lemon is always a charmer too.
Here are the canelés. Dark, thick caramelized crust and soft tender custard center, with a smooth vanilla and rum flavor.
I am one happy person :)
Hi
thank you for your blog, making us discover new place and good food.
But please take out this canelés pics, it’s wrong: color is not dark enough what I suppose the crust is too thin. most important the inside dough looks not baked enough which I’m sure make’s it heavy. Yes middle should be soft but with lot of small bubble to make it light and creamy.
I know it’s not everyday like that by Robuchon, but this one is the worst of all!
Hope we could meet to learn from each other, where can I send you some pics of my canelés.
Regards
