French Pastry

A macaron is a French pastry that is made of two almond-based meringue cookies with a filling in between. While the macaron is now strongly associated with French culture, it is believed to have originated in Italy. It was only later that the macaron made its way to France, where it quickly became a popular dessert.

One of the key characteristics of a macaron is its crispy outside and soft inside. This unique texture is achieved by folding ground almonds into the meringue mixture. The result is a light and airy cookie that melts in your mouth. At Isabella's Cupcakes & More, we use only the finest ingredients to create our French macarons.
