French macaroons are very different from the traditional American macaroons. They are small, round cakes, crisp on the outside, smooth and soft in the middle with a filling in the center (for a pic you can visit the laduree (.com) website.
I am aware that I can purchase them via FedEx from the New York location of the Paris patisserie, Fauchon. And from the Laduree website in London, England. But those alternatives are very expensive, especially the shipping costs. I was hoping to find a French bakery/restaurant local in Houston that sells thiss amazing dessert. Thanks in advance for everyone's help!
