Traditionally, Valentine’s Day is celebrated with the gifting of cards, flowers and chocolates. This year’s Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. Are you still looking for gift ideas? You don’t have to break the bank to impress your valentine – check out the following chocolatiers and patisseries. They offer some beautifully crafted, delicious treats that I would be excited to receive this Valentine’s Day:
Bon Macaron Patisserie
Their 2016 Valentine’s Collection consists of 5 specialty flavours with unique designs. They are available in a beautiful gift box that fits not only all five specialty macarons, but also two extra macarons in your choice of flavours.
Bon Macaron Valentines Day 2016 Collection
The five specialty macarons are:
- Cinnamon Heart – A white macaron decorated with tiny candy hearts.
- Kir Royal – A deep pink macaron flecked with gold.
- Mon Cheri (Chocolate and Cherry) – An adorable macaron based on the “heart eyes” emoji.
- Rose – A bright red macaron sculpted to look like a rose.
- Passion Fruit – Mini-macarons in the shape of hearts, X’s and O’s
On a regular basis, Bon Macaron produces some really interesting flavours, including Curry Mango Chutney, Goat Cheese & Fig, and White Truffle & Sea Salt. I’ve tried these flavours and thought they were quite spot on. Depending on your taste buds, you may taste the sweet first, or if you’re like me, I tasted the savoury flavours first. Either way, they were interesting, intriguing, and inspiring.
