I’ve been obsessed with La Boulange Bakery in San Francisco for a few years, but have just now gotten the chance to taste its macarons. Unfortunately, I can’t offer a solid review on La Boulange macarons, because this is what happened to my poor little French cookie:

{Preston crushed my macaron—and my heart.}

It was a windy day on the La Boulange de Market patio, and my well-meaning friend Preston caught my macaron before it flew away into the street; sadly, he didn’t realize there was a beautiful raspberry macaron in that flying pastry bag, because he proceeded to crumble it up into a ball (and almost threw it away) before I could stop him. He tried to get me another one, but the lady in line before him grabbed the last macaron—so I guess that’s a sign that they are pretty delicious!

Looks like I’ll be revisiting La Boulange again when I trek out to Cali this summer; too bad I can’t have some delivered to me (Preston, are you reading?!). Luckily, La Boulange macarons are only $1.50 a pop, so I didn’t have to eat too much money for this…but I did have to eat a lot of crushed filling and crumbs!
