What makes macaroons so good? Why are they so expensive? I don't think I've ever had one.
Do you mean macarons? Because they take more time to prepare and bake.
Macaroons are different. Kinda like a chewy biscuit because of the coconut.
yeah those, the fancy looking biscuits that seem to cost a few bucks each.
Yeah. There's a lot more involved in the process. You have to get the flavouring right, let the mixture sit for a while, bake it slow like a pav. Blah blah. Well worth buying unless you know what you're doing making them.
For the price I reckon it's worth eating something else.
I really really like them.
I really like Porsche's too but I'll keep driving my old shitbox toyota.
