Happy Halloween!

Love a macaron? Like pumpkin? Live in New York?
You might want to head on over to the Payard Patisserie website and preorder some pumpkin goodies. A lovely PR person let me know about how Payard is celebrating Halloween and I'm happy to share the good news with you.
Here are a few reasons why you would be a hero if you show up at a Halloween party with pumpkin macarons or even the $24 completely adorable cake:

1. François Payard is a third generation French Pastry Chef.
2. He was awarded “Pastry Chef of the Year” by the Bon Appétit Food & Entertainment Awards
3. While the kids are eating poor excuses for sweets, you could be eating a terrific dessert.
4. Macarons are the tastiest little bites, crispy outside creamy inside bites ever created by man.

Need I say more? I'd go for the cake. $24 is reasonable considering the fabulous chef.
