And what would you think a 9 year olds favorite flavors would be? You guessed it! Rose and lavender! Ok ok, you didn’t see it coming. We normally get our macarons from Toothsome Chocolate Factory, but these were FAR BETTER! Highly recommend.
The best chocolates in the world! Quite pricey, but SO worth it!
I didn't enter the store due to a dog running around the shoppe. I have wanted to visit St Armand's Circle for several years. It might have been different pre-pandemic, but I had high hopes for seeing the area. 1. Even though EVERY street/ crosswalk/ mid-street crosswalks exhibited HUGE signs - "MASKS MANDATORY, INSIDE and OUTSIDE - hardly ANYONE was wearing a mask... and we were made to walk on slanted sidewalks to stay 6' away from the unmasked persons not adhering to the rules. Many of the stores were closed or for rent or out-of-business. I was going to enter "le macaron - French pastries" until I observed a large dog running around inside by all the food (it was NOT an ADA service dog). PETS in a food business illegal? I would have shopped had it not been for the TONS of unmasked people and dog in the pastry shop. I suppose Sarasota doesn't need the business with nearly 10,000 people diagnosed with COVID in Sarasota County. One restaurant manager on the Circle BRAGGED that he had COVID, twice!
Wonderful
Such a Fun little place in Sarasota. The attendant was helpful with picking our macaroons. The caramel and pistachio were our favorite. They also had a nice selection of gelato and other French pastries. We hope to stop here again on our trip.
Great coffee and great gelato! This was a great place for sweets and coffee every treat was displayed to perfection the ladies working were very sweet! Very unique gelato and treats.
Incredible macarons. Pistachio is always my favorite. Two huge thumbs up. Decent variety but expected more. Worth the visit is you enjoy macarons.
My cousin and I took her lil girls on a girls only trip. "No stinky boys allowed" was their battle cry. I digress: Le Marcaron is a cute french pastry shop with an inviting ambiance and wonderful enticing smells which just pulls you in. They have samples of macaroons to try which I did, sooo yummy they also have a gelato area. The girls loved it! The young man at the counter was so friendly and allowed the girls try some gelato before we bought some. The girls got some gelato, my cousin is doing a Keto thing so I couldnt buy macaroons, that would just be mean. The girls sat at their own table with their treats and the adults on ours, albeit treatless but we enjoyed our little french escape in Sarasota.
The person working helped me pick a dozen beautiful macarons. The perfect little dessert for Father's day
Great treats. We really enjoyed our visit. Try the chocolate croissants or macaroons. The coffee and latte are especially good.
