描述
Macaron is a French pastry made from egg whites, sugar and ground almonds. Usually made in the form of cookies; cream or jam is placed between the two layers. The Italian name maccarone/maccherone comes from the word ammaccare - "break, crush", and is a reference to the method of making the main ingredient, almond flour. The finished product is soft, with a smooth surface, melts in your mouth.
