Macarons, with their delicate texture and vibrant colors, are a beloved sweet treat today. But did you know that they have humble origins dating back to the 8th century? The first macarons were simple almond cookies, created by Venetian monks. It wasn't until the 16th century, when Catherine de Medici brought them to France, that they began to resemble the macarons we know today. However, the signature "macaron sandwich", filled with cream or jam, didn't actually appear until the 20th century. The French patisserie Ladurée is credited with this innovation, turning a humble almond cookie into an elegant and highly coveted delicacy. So next time you bite into a macaron, remember that you're partaking in a tradition that spans centuries and countries!
