had a sudden urge to blog while studying for Derivatives and Securities despite it being 1am in the morning. it felt as though it was just yesterday when i was ranting to my friends about SWOT VAC and exams. before i know it, i'm done with 2 papers already. glad that time is passing by so quick. this means holidays are nearing!!! :) so excited for the few mini trips planned out this july - JB, KL, Melaka, and Bali.
during the last week of school, rachel and i visited this newly opened macaron shop located at 30 hardware lane called La Belle Miette. its a really small shop that fits 2 petite coffee tables and 4 chairs, with minimal walking space.
fell in love with their macarons right after my first bite into the rose flavoured one at charlene's 21st, and i've been craving for them ever since. their macarons are chewy, full of flavour, and with just the right amount of sweetness! best macarons i've tasted.
we both tried as many flavours as we could, and everyone of them tasted so yummy! here's their current menu: 72% Cocoa Single Origin Chocolate (Venezuela), Caramel a la Fleur de Sel, Cherry Blossom & Sake, Ginger & Macadamia, Hazelnut Belle Miette, Lemon, Olive Oil & Vanilla, Pink Grapefruit, Pistachio, Raspberry, Rose, Strawberry & Vanilla, Violet & Blueberry.
their box and logo design is hand drawn by a melbourne graphic artist, and every charm hanging from the brocade tells a macaron story. how detailed and pretty can it get! their boxes come in two different sizes, and the only difference between the complimentary and gift boxes is that the former's soft covered and the latter's hard.
come to think of it, there is not a single shop in singapore that solely sells macarons. this little sweet treat has ought to be more popular!
