@Khaled Alanani Thank you. You said what I was going to. Its a tourist trap. Even in the US, if youre in a decent sized city you should be able to find a real French pâtisserie owned by a French pâtissier that has pastries and macaron made in house and light years better than anything at Laduree. I know my US city has 2 really great ones, both owned and operated by French expats. Laduree is high end the way people think Godiva chocolate is high end. Maybe it was at one point. But nowdays its all mass produced and relies on branding and hype to give the illusion of quality.

Best gift I’ve ever gotten, and I’ve been in love with them since!

Macarons packed in the stylish looking Chest with the tassel is gorgeous....

Amazing ! These is the paradise of macarons lovers ♥️

I've always wanted to try one of those. That and a churro.

I’ve had these in Paris and there are many macaron shops that are just as good and cost way less. So it’s overpriced and more a brand thing than anything else.

ate 6 pieces box in Geneva, i think it was around 25 swiss franc, worth it its just different than any other macarons ive tried so far

Honestly macrons are not the hardest thing to make at home if you don't care about looks (which I know is a huge deal with them) but I like how they taste and if taste is the only thing you are looking for they are not all that finicky with a $12 electric hand mixer

Not a single one of the ingredients he listed were expensive enough to justify 3 dollars for a mediocre cookie.

you kinda know they're simple to make if zero process is shown .. it's an almond, egg white, and sugar base, then add a colouring to suit the flavour .. filling can be jam, nutella, chocolate, or whatever can be blended .. it's not rocket science and the scalability and daily production at various locations achieving comparable outcomes proves that .. this is just a clip about brand marketing basically

Id their feet don't look too nice and neither do the bottoms of their shells. I'd be pretty disappointed.

The biggest fraud is the marketing that these are “hibernating” between Switzerland and whichever country you’re buying them from. There are local more prestigious patisseries that make them on premises or in kitchens just a few blocks away. Pierre Herme make absolute God Tier macarons. Laduree are like the McDonald’s of Patisserie’s, greggs chocolate eclair is en par with Laduree…

I was about to say... 3200 a day was kinda low?
