French Macaron Baking Adventures, Part 18: March is Macaron Month!
By Lisa Maliga, copyright 2018
Springtime and macarons – what a beautiful combination! .
Since 2005, Jour du Macaron has been celebrated. Noted pastry chef and macaron expert, Pierre Herme, came up with the idea in order to bring attention to this lovely French delicacy and raise money for his charity.
Usually, Macaron Day is held on the first day of spring. However, this year when I Googled the holiday, I was given three different dates. So, why not celebrate macarons for 31 days this March?
