I went out and bought macarons from Thierry, Soirette, Thomas Haas, Faubourg, and French Made Baking today so that I could try them together. Hopefully, after tasting all of them, I’ll be able to crown the current king of macarons in Vancouver. I have to admit that trying so many macarons at once is much more difficult than what I had imagined it to be. I don’t know if I’ve ever had so much sugar in one sitting…I am writing this preview as I’m taking a break after trying about half of the macarons. Let me tell you that I already know who the last place finisher is and I never expected it to come in last place. Check back in the next few days to see who the winners and losers are!
