Lets Get This Straight Once and for All

Ok, so something that really gets on my goat is how people are always mixing up Macarons and Macaroons. Yes, there is a difference.....a very big difference. Let me explain the difference to those who don't know. 

Macarons - These are French style biscuits made with powdered almonds and inside is a beautiful ganache. 

Macaroons - These are an Australian biscuit made from coconut. 

And here is a photo showing just how different they really are. 

So now that you know this you can tell others who don't know. Pass it on. 

some days i wake up in the morning and feel like a macaron, even though i am a macaroon

they could

i love macaron, but never heard of macaroon

But this takes the biscuit 

i never knew macrons existed

nice random topic XD

Thanks. I had to say something because so many people I’ve come across mess it up all the time. I guess some people might not know the Australian version which is fair enough I guess but I thought I should educate some people. 

Well, now you know and you can share it with others. 

Lol. Good one. 

no, this is a macron

Sometimes I have a macascone with my macaschooner.

I much prefer macarons any day. 

Do not confuse Macaroon with Cameroon. They are entirely different.

lol

I’ve got to tell people this!

Thanks Tiger, pls share. 

Let's keep going if we can?!

agreed

I didn't know the difference, thanks for sharing!
