Macaron 21 Vanilla Bean with Banana Caramel Buttercream

Week 21 January 25
Macaron 21 Vanilla bean with banana caramel buttercream. I realize after making this macaron this one makes three weeks of vanilla. Last week, promise. Next week something new. I was in a Caribbean mood. Probably because I want a Caribbean vacation. I am cooking vicariously through my vacation dreams. I just adore the color of this one too. A perfect shade of yellow, which has slowly made its way in my heart as my favorite color. How did this happen?

Macaron 19 Vanilla with Chocolate Cream Cheese Buttercream

Week 19 January 11
Macaron 19 Vanilla with Chocolate Cream Cheese Buttercream. The new vanilla and chocolate classic. If you thought chocolate buttercream was good, wait until you have had it with cream cheese. Cream cheese by the ways makes everything better, that and bacon of course!

Macaron 18 Red Velvet Macaron with Cream Cheese Buttercream

Week 18 January 4
Macaron 18 Red Velvet Macaron with Cream Cheese Buttercream. Winter tastes like Red Velvet. It's dense and rich and the cream cheese brings it together. The red velvet macaron is wonderful just as good the cake. I think its the perfect substitute.
