Pastry chain Le Macaron is now open in Belmont Shore<\/a> serving up famed French confections as well as coffee, gelato, chocolates and more.<\/p>\n

The shop, located next to Candified<\/a>, has been open for a few weeks, but will have a ribbon cutting ceremony to celebrate the opening on Saturday, March 2 at 1 p.m.<\/p>\n

The brand\u2019s handmade macaron shells, which draw heavily on the famed Chef Pierre Herm\u00e9 school of thought, are an 80% almond flour to 20% meringue (sweet, whipped egg whites) ratio.<\/p>\n

In between the two shells, macarons usually have a ganache (ga-nosh), or chocolate and cream mixture, fruity jam or cream.<\/p>\n

It’s a dessert that appeals to those with dietary restrictions like a gluten-free diet because the ingredients used don’t contain gluten, and some flavors, like the mango jam and key lime-strawberry, are dairy-free.<\/p>\n

The brand’s macaron menu ranges from classic flavors like Belgian chocolate and salted caramel to more unique flavors like lavender white chocolate and rose and rotates flavors seasonally.<\/p>\n

Coffee and other pastries, like lemon bars and eclairs, are also available. The shop also plans to add French gelato to their store.<\/p>\n
