I developed an awful addiction to macaroons from Ladurée while I was in Paris. Does anyone know where I can buy any in Dublin - bar Café Léon I should add as I'm not too fond of theirs.

Thanks
 
Re: Where to buy Macaroons in Dublin

Would Maison des Gourmets do them? Don't know the street name, on that pedestrian street across the road from the Powerscourt Centre.

The Clarence used to serve them. The Cake Cafe near Camden St sells them too I think

''Leon the pastry cafe'' at 17 wicklow street always seem to have them.

That makes me sound fussy!!!

Thanks for all the suggestions. It looks like I'm just going to have to go back to Paris!!!

I have serious cravings!!

I bought some last year in a coffee shop in Cabinteely village. Not quite the same as buying in Paris, but still good.

Am 99% sure I saw them just last night at the bakery counter of Kennedy's Food Store in Fairview: [broken link removed]. Maybe call them first to confirm. Note: I did notice a glaze over the macaroons - which some might find controversial. The standard there is way above (Irish) average in everything they serve, which I imagine would extend to their baked goods.

Also, a Belgian man comes to Belfast Christmas market to sell his "world's best macaroons". I tried one - it was just amazing.

Good luck. :)

At a price. They're fierce expensive. Its the only place i've got them so maybe its the same everywhere but i nearly fell over when they asked for 24e for a box
 
Re: Where to buy Macaroons in Dublin

I got a small box in Café Léon last week for 12 euro. There were supposed to be 8 in it but when I got home and looked I realised there was only 7!!!

I don't mind paying for quality but I found them artificial tasting and quite nasty really. There was a peach one that was awful!!
 
Re: Where to buy Macaroons in Dublin

Easy to make a mistake, the spelling is very similar macaroon to macaron
 
Re: Where to buy Macaroons in Dublin

Hi all ,

I am the pastry chef of Leon .

I am really sorry if you dont like my Macaron . But you didnt like the peach one . All Macaron cost 8 euros not 12 euros .

Please i can ensure that all macaron are home made .

The Macaron from La maison des gourmets , hotels , shops are frozen and come from a food supplier that serve all the hotels and shops in Dublin .

Leon had a team of 9 pastry chefs starting only 3 month ago . Let us some time and i come back to us .

If you need anything you can contact me personally .

Regards
