French pâtissier Ladurée has been making the confections since 1862, when founder Louis Ernest Ladurée first opened a bakery in Rue Royale, Paris. This neighbourhood soon became a magnet for Parisian high society. Cafe culture exploded in popularity, and the Ladurées redeveloped their store into a modish salon de thé. Its exclusive atmosphere was popular among fashionable ladies, who flocked to indulge in its delectable pastries and macarons while catching up on all the latest gossip.

The recipe for the trademark Ladurée macaron hasn't changed in nearly 200 years. Tiny circles of delicate almond meringue are baked until just firm, left to cool and then sandwiched together with a delicious ganache filling. The real draw is the sheer variety of flavours on offer, each with its corresponding colour creating a visual delight, too. Our selections include caramel, chocolate, pistachio, raspberry, rose and vanilla, to name but a few. How does anyone choose a favourite? If you're looking to treat someone special, Ladurée gift boxes are a wonderful way to let loved ones know that you're thinking of them.
