More Than Macaroons at Ladurée

Though Ladurée in Paris is arguably most famous for their macaroons, the other jeweled-looking delicacies in the pastry case are deserving of equal attention. Particularly bewitching is the Religieuse; face-to-face, I was powerless to resist its charms. Essentially two éclairs bound by a berry-laced icing, this little tower was immediately toppled–by me.  This is like an edible version of the silky, lacy confections at Sabbia Rosa, my favorite place in all of Paris.

    How big is this adorable thing? I can’t tell from your description or the photo. It may not be the case, but it looks VERY sweet. If it were bigger than about a bite I think I’d get a toothache!

    Inquiring minds need to know!
