Ladurée Luxuries

With the chocolate season of Easter nearly upon us, we can escape to Paris to have the chance of experiencing the ultimate in macarons at Ladurée, the French institution of all patisseries. Their macarons are considered to be the best in the world. In fact, delectable desserts and macarons from Ladurée were used in Sophia Coppola's movie, 'Marie Antoinette'.






Mmmmmm….tempted? If you can't wait, Ladurée has just opened its first Australian shop cafe in Westfield Sydney, with a very luscious range of flavours! So very French!
