I am so excited to bring this giveaway to the blog! When I was first contacted by someone from Chef Francois Payard I did a little jump for joy. He is an amazing French pastry chef that is world renowned. Who wouldn’t want to go to one of his bakeries and sample some of his delicate creations? Better yet, have them delivered right to your door? I have never had something so delicious. The shell was so pillowy and soft, yet had the most delicate crunch. They are absolutely divine! It was a little bit of heaven delivered to my doorstep!

Have you ever tried to make macarons yourself? They can be temperamental in the home kitchen and the results aren’t always what you are aiming for. They may be tasty, but you don’t typically end up with that perfect macaron shell that Chef Francois Payard creates. Enter Chef Payard’s “MakeCarons.”  You’ll receive his perfect macaron shells right at your doorstep and then you have the power to create whatever flavor you’d like by making your own ganache. The shells are shipped with a recipe book for some classic ganache recipes, but the sky is the limit to what you want to create on your own! They’ve even created a spot on their website where they want to hear what you’ve created with the “MakeCaron” shells here.

Since we’ve come upon the holidays I knew I wanted to make my ganache filling in the spirit of Christmas. My favorite flavor is peppermint and I thought these would make wonderful little gifts. The “MakeCaron” box also come with a gift label so you can carefully share these wonderful treats with someone else. I made a peppermint ganache and then rolled the finished macaron lightly in candy cane dust. Not only did they taste out of this world, but they looked festive! I also made the classic chocolate ganache which was the perfect accompaniment to any of the shell flavors.

So, how can you get your hands on some of Chef Payard’s macarons? Enter using the Rafflesopter and you can win 3 boxes of “MakeCarons,” vanilla, chocolate, and raspberry flavor shells. You can enter here with 6 changes to win on the first day and one additional chance each day if you are on Twitter. Once the winner is announced your MakeCaron’s will be shipped overnight. You’ll want to try these alone first, that way if you accidentally eat most of the box no one can be upset with you. I’m speaking from experience here 😉 If you don’t win the giveaway, I urge you to take a look at their site here and purchase some as a gift or for yourself. The thoughtful folks at Chef Payard’s bakery sent me the most wonderful gift when they heard I gave birth to George and I had the opportunity to sample some of their delicious chocolates as well. I’m speechless when it comes to describing them.
