• An Old World Christmas ornament

Macarons, those delightful and colorful almond meringue sandwich cookies, have a rich history rooted in France. However, their origins can be traced back to Italy. The modern macaron we know today is believed to have been inspired by Italian meringue cookies called "maccheroni" or "maccarones." Hanging one of the Old World Christmas Yellow Macaroon Ornaments on your Christmas or dessert themed tree will not only honor the tradition, but make your hungry!

It wasn't until the 16th century that macarons made their way to France, thanks to the chef of Catherine de' Medici, who married King Henry II of France. The macaron gained popularity in France during the Renaissance, especially among the nobility and upper classes.

Over time, French pastry chefs refined the macaron recipe, creating the delicate, airy cookies filled with ganache, buttercream, or jam that we enjoy today. Parisian patisseries like Ladurée and Pierre Hermé are famous for their exquisite macarons, contributing to the worldwide love and appreciation for these sweet treats.

Crafted from delicate glass and adorned with shimmering glitter, this ornament captures the irresistible charm of a perfectly baked macaron in a sunny yellow hue. Picture the delicate almond meringue sandwiching a creamy filling, now transformed into a delightful addition to your festive tree.

With its vibrant color and sparkling allure, this ornament brings a touch of elegance and sweetness to your seasonal decorations. Whether you're a connoisseur of French delicacies or simply appreciate the beauty of these iconic treats, the Yellow Macaron Ornament is sure to add a delightful pop to your holiday ambiance.
