Pierre Herme --- French Patssier's Macaroon

Just for your information..... as long as I know.....it seems macaroon has been popular for this several years..... since Pierre Herme's macaroon has been introduced....was it about the time when American movie " Marie-Antoinette" was released.....I don't know if there is any relation, but that movie was cute.... very girlish.... with pastel color...beautiful shoes and mouth-watering sweets.
