Dessert Truck Works Pomegranate macarons from Nov 2008
Updated: Georgia’s on the Upper West Side and Cannelle Patisserie in Queens have been added.
François Payard is organizing the first annual Macaron Day in NYC on Saturday, March 20. Discover just how good these gourmet little pastries can be at one of the bakeries below. These retailers will be offering a free macaron if you tell them you are there because of Macaron Day (of course you should tell them you are there because of DessertBuzz too, but you won’t get anything extra). As you would expect in a city of 8 million, supplies are limited so go early.
Macaron Day NYC is inspired by and will coincide with the 5th annual Jour du Macaron in Paris, organized by Pierre Hermé.

Nico, I am completely stumped as to why Macarons are so popular. My girlfriend goes crazy over them whenever she visits me in Paris. They just don’t do much for me….
