This is the 1st time that I bought and ate macarons. I do not have a sweet tooth but decided to try. Too sweet for my likings but it really taste good. I came across this brand from my BF who wanted to try since we never had before. The outlook of macarons looks very appealing and delicious that you will simply want to buy every single pieces to try.The shop which is located at Ngee Ann City (level 1 & 2) looks very exquisite and elegant.

I came across this brand from my BF who wanted to try since we never had before. The outlook of macarons looks very appealing and delicious that you will simply want to buy every single pieces to try.
The shop which is located at Ngee Ann City (level 1 & 2) looks very exquisite and elegant. One thing bad about it is the maracons on display do not have tags to show the names of it. But of cos, they do have a stand to show the different flavours of the marcaons sold there. However, I did read some reviews before going down on which are the best selling and most popular macarons. My bf and I like it alot and I will definitely go back again and try those that I have not tasted.
The populars and best selling maracons are:
1) Salted Caramel
2) Rose Petal
3) Vanilla
4) Pistachio
5) Strawberry Candy Mashmallow
6) Chocolate Yuzu - Highly recommend
7) Marie-Antoniette Tea - Highly recomment
But these are not the items that I have bought cause many of them are already sold out when i reach there about 7pm. Be sure to be there early before everything runs out. Before you purchase the staff will ask how many macarons you would like to purchase so I decided to take 6 in a box which cost $32.00. Then after that, they would ask you to choose the colour of the boxes that you prefer. There are black, pastel pink, pastel green and beidge, if I remember correctly.
So, I took the black box and then told them the flavours that I wanted. I did not manage to buy Marie-Antoniette, Pistachio Salted Caramel because it was all sold out. Hence, I picked the 4 remaning above (in the list I stated) and the other 2 I ask the staff to recommend and she suggested Praline & Orange Blossom.
The macarons are very sweet, and it melt right away once is in your mouth. Holding and munching a macaron that cost about SGD 5.30 per piece it has better be something really good. Why is this so expensive? I heard from a friend that apparently all the maracons are air-flown from Paris and of cos, it will be alot of cheaper if you were to buy in Paris/ London.
