Laduree

When i was in Paris i didn't get enough time to stop at Laduree. My inner fat person died of shame, so now food porn shall have to do the trick.

At least there are books? Surely i will be able to bake up a Fat Friday dream? Just look at them here

I love people who scan recipes and upload them online so thank you muchly Ara Jane

Even their tea is poncily and most spectacularly packaged, but i suppose that's part of the idea?

Every blog with a post about Laduree mentions the fact that  in Sofia Coppola's Marie Antoinette, Laduree made the pastries. So, obligatory information complete.

Only small individual versions of the Marie Antoinette cake are available for purchase if i have internet stalked correctly. It would still be completely worth it! i love you food porn

Well high on my bucket list is a return trip to Europe, and Fat Friday shall hopefully become a fulfilled dream. For now, i shall have to see if i can get to the Sydney store instead, I'm pretty sure somewhere a French person fainted for me suggesting such a thing.
