Add a dash of sweet sophistication to your Christmas tree with this Turquoise Macaroon Ornament from Old World Christmas. Measuring at 2.25 inches of delectable design, this glass ornament celebrates the beloved French pastry that has been delighting taste buds since the 8th century.
The story of the macaroon takes a revolutionary turn with two nuns, affectionately known as the Macaroon Sisters, who sold these sweet confections to pay for their housing during the French Revolution. This ornament, with its rippled turquoise texture and dusting of glitter to mimic sugar, is an edible-looking replica, paying homage to the dessert's rich history.
Ideal for a dessert-themed tree or as a delightful contrast against the green pine, this macaroon looks good enough to eat – but better to admire year after year. Its tantalizing cream filling and sparkling exterior invite you to reminisce about your favorite patisserie or that afternoon in Paris spent savoring every bite.
Not just for the pastry enthusiast, this ornament is a visual treat for anyone who enjoys a touch of culinary art on their Christmas tree. It serves as a sweet reminder of the small luxuries in life, the joy of baking, or perhaps the pleasure of sharing a dessert with someone special.
Whether you're a chef, a baker, or simply a lover of all things sweet, this Turquoise Macaroon Ornament is the perfect addition to your holiday decor. Let it bring a hint of French elegance and a whisper of historical narrative to your festive celebrations.
Text on Old World hang tag: A macaron is a French pastry. Macarons were first made in the 8th century but didn't become widely known until two nuns, seeking asylum during the French Revolution, sold the dessert to pay for their housing. These nuns became known as the Macaron Sisters.
