The artisanal know-how of the Cassis macaron

Fauchon’s blackcurrant & violet Macaron offers a bold combination of fruity and floral flavours. To accompany this delicate macaron, here are some suggestions for pairing with teas:

Black tea with violet: To reinforce the violet note present in the macaron, you can taste it with a black tea scented with violet. The combination of the floral flavours of tea and macaron creates a subtle and elegant harmony.

Black tea with rose: Violet and rose are classic combinations in pastry. A black tea scented with rose can bring a delicate floral note that goes well with the blackcurrant & violet macaron.

White tea with red fruits: For a lighter option, a white tea with red fruits, such as berries or cherries, can create a nice association with the macaron. The fruity flavours intermingle, creating a balance between sweetness and acidity.

Mint infusion: If you prefer a theine-free option, a peppermint infusion can bring a pleasant freshness with the blackcurrant & violet macaron. The refreshing mint complements the fruity and floral flavours of the macaron.

To preserve the taste and freshness of this pastry gem, keep your macaron away from any source of humidity. FAUCHON blackcurrant & violet macarons can be kept for 5 days after your order has been shipped, in a cool place, ideally at 2-5 degrees.

The marriage of blackcurrant, violet and dark chocolate is a delight. The richness and bitterness of dark chocolate, like those of our praline-filled dark chocolate bar, blend perfectly with the sweetness of fruit. This combination creates a rich and harmonious balance.

  1. Fresh Cheese
    An unexpected but delicious pairing can be made with a fresh cheese, such as goat cheese or ricotta. The slight acidity and creamy texture of the fresh cheese pleasantly complement the fruity flavor of the macaron, offering an original taste experience.
  2. Light Vanilla Cream
    A light vanilla cream can add a subtle sweetness and a note of freshness to the whole. Vanilla harmonizes well with the flavors of blackcurrant and raspberry, creating a delicate and tasty balance.
  3. Fauchon Rosé Champagne
    For a more festive experience, FAUCHON Rosé Champagne is an excellent choice. The sparkling bubbles and fruity notes of the champagne blend perfectly with the flavors of blackcurrant and raspberry, offering an elegant and refined combination.
