Fauchon answers your questions about the Caramel macaron

The Caramel macaron is deliciously sweet and rich in flavour. To accompany this delight, here are some suggested tea-macaron pairings:

Full-bodied and robust black tea can be an excellent choice to accompany the caramel macaron. Opt for a quality black tea, such as Assam or Darjeeling Imperial F.O.P, to create a contrast between the intense notes of tea and the sweetness of caramel.

If you prefer a lighter pairing, a delicate green tea can subtly complement the flavor of the caramel macaron. Try Sencha green tea or mint green tea to bring freshness to your tasting. Chung Hao jasmine tea, with its delicate floral notes, can offer an interesting contrast with the richness of caramel. The combination of flavors creates a unique and enjoyable taste experience.

If you’re looking for a caffeine-free option, rooibos is a great choice. Its naturally sweet and slightly sweet taste can harmonize with caramel and create an unparalleled combination.

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

To accompany a caramel macaron, here are some suggestions for taste pairings that will enhance its deliciousness:

  1. Coffee: A Timeless Classic
    Coffee is still a great choice to pair with caramel. The roasted, slightly bitter flavors of coffee pair perfectly with the sweetness of caramel. You can opt for a rich, full-bodied espresso or try a milder coffee, like a caramel latte, for an irresistible combination.
  2. Chocolate: A Gourmet Alliance
    The marriage between caramel and chocolate is a real delight. Choose a square of high-quality dark or milk chocolate and enjoy it alongside your caramel macaron. The rich, deep aromas of the chocolate will enhance the flavor of the caramel, creating a perfect harmony in the mouth.
  3. Nuts: A Crunchy Contrast
    Hazelnuts, almonds or cashews add a crunchy texture and a slightly toasted flavor that contrasts nicely with the sweetness of the caramel. You can enjoy the caramel macaron with crushed nuts or serve them whole on the side for a complementary tasting experience.
  4. Spirits: A Bold Accord
    For those who like bolder flavors, pair your caramel macaron with a quality whiskey or bourbon. The woody, smoky, and sometimes caramel notes of these spirits pair well with caramel, providing a complex and warm tasting experience.
