French Macaroons

Cake-Cetera

Lately, our blog posts have been centred around healthy snacks. However, don’t be fooled by these posts. We here at The Amazing Blog love to indulge in some delicious sweets every now and then, which is why we were delighted to receive macarons from Cake-Cetera…they definitely sweetened up our day!

Cake-Cetera designs all different kinds of cakes, as well as French macarons. Its macarons come in 5 different flavours: chocolate, vanilla, coffee, pistachio and raspberry & lemon. With this variety of flavours, you are bound to find one that you love.

Made from a simple mix of eggs, butter, sugar and almonds, the macarons are a delightful treat that you can enjoy without worrying about eating a mouth full of additives. With 12 macarons per box, they are perfect for gift-giving or sharing, if you are willing to give any up after the first bite.

For those wanting to send macarons to a family member or friend, Cake-Cetera will include an edible message on the macarons and top them off with sprinkles. The skill and precision of the messages on Cake-Cetera’s macarons are truly enviable and you almost feel bad about eating it. Almost.

You can purchase Cake Cetera’s macarons here for your own enjoyment or you can send them gift-wrapped to family members or friends. They are only £12.00 and they even ship nationwide!  

Miss Patisserie's French Delicacies!

With the early April sunshine now just a distant memory and next month set to be the coldest May in over a hundred years it feels like winter all over again here at The Amazing Blog. And when the skies are this dismal and grey, there's nothing I like better at the end of a long day at work than a nice, long soak in a hot bath with an accompanying glass of wine. And as I'm always on the lookout for new bathtime treats, I was thrilled to come across the French-themed Miss Patisserie. Designed to cater for your every need - whether you want to relax, de-stress or refresh, Miss Patisserie offers a range off luxurious products that put the fun back into bath time! The fragrance and essential oils are designed to evoke the senses and have been created with past times and fond memories in mind and they use natural ingredients including both epsom and dead sea salts all of which have amazing benefits on the body. I tried the pastel coloured French Macaroons, which look just like the real thing and are named after the most glamorous French cities including Paris and Cannes. Bursting with fragrance and fizzy salts, these bath accesorries are a real French delicacy! Available online from the Miss Patisserie website.
