A Special Valentine's Day Surprise!

With Valentine’s Day quickly approaching, are friends have been approaching us wondering how they should celebrate: do they go with flowers, chocolates, and greeting cards again this year? Cute gift boxes can bring out a smile on your sweetheart’s face, but it’s definitely what’s inside that matters! So we got to thinking – what kind of goodies would we want to find in our own Valentine’s Day gift box?

At Olivia Macaron, we work with the motto that it’s “Fun to play with food” – especially if that food is delicious puffs of gluten-free meringue and cream! We love playing in the kitchen and dreaming up new and exciting flavors to fill our French macarons. Sometimes, we even surprise ourselves with the delicious results.

Recently, Sara Swabb – a wonderful Washingtonian, mama, and blogger extraordinaire – visited our macaron shop in DC’s Georgetown neighborhood for some delicious dessert! In her blog post on Female Foodie, she wrote about. We chatted over fresh roasted coffee from Intelligentsia Coffee and our seasonal French macarons. She loved her Blood Orange and Salted Caramel macarons (both of which you can order now on our website!). We couldn’t have been happier to host her for this delightful occasion. Click on the link to read the full post and see her scrumptious pictures!

Is it really fall without a whole lot of pumpkin spice treats? During autumn, everyone’s favorite seasonal dessert flavor was popping up all over the District, including in our own Georgetown and Tysons Corner macaron shops! Our version of the fall fave includes a rich pumpkin spice buttercream between two bright orange meringue shells – bringing together a traditional French pastry and a classic American flavor. And after reading this list, we’re sure we’re in great company!
