Artisanal RICHART macarons: between tradition and innovation
Maison RICHART represents family history, passing down artisanal know-how and shared passion from generation to generation. Each macaron is the fruit of nearly a century of heritage, extremely dear to our heart. At the crossroads between great French tradition in chocolate-making and pastry-making, our macarons are made by hand in our workshop near Lyon.
Just for you, we’ll share a few of the secrets behind making them… But don’t tell anyone, we need our privacy!
The secret of the shells of our artisanal macarons
We use our traditional craftsmanship to make the shells of our macarons nice and plump, using an Italian meringue recipe, which is lighter than French meringue used by your typical macaron-seller. An exclusive Maison RICHART technique is employed to add the egg to the fine almond flour. This unique know-how is what creates the delicate, smooth skin on the outside of the cookies and the fine bubbles on the inside, producing generous shells. The final result is light and delicate, with a very thin, crisp outer texture and a filling that is airy and soft.
The secret of the fillings of our artisanal macarons
To create our assorted macarons, we don’t use buttercream or flavored syrups, like your average macaron-seller. Such a recipe would be too rich and limit the possibilities for incorporating fine ingredients. Dark, milk or white chocolate ganache, hazelnut or almond praline, caramel, and fruit compote or coulis are the key ingredients that make our fillings the best.
So, just like our chocolates, our assorted macaron flavors feature generous fillings, which reveal subtly sweet and highly aromatic notes upon tasting, thanks to the meticulous selection of single origin cocoa beans (Madagascar, Venezuela...), nuts, vanilla pods from Madagascar, fresh fruit, and more... We always value high-quality, fine products.
Macaron flavors: good things come to those who wait…
If you don’t give macarons some time to mature, they won’t express the full richness of their aromatic palette. This is why we pay special attention to this natural step in the production process in our workshop. After the macaron cookies have been filled and assembled by hand, our gourmet creations need some time to mature in a special chamber, during which the water content of the filling migrates slowly into the dry shell. This key phase optimizes the expression of each aroma in the macaron fillings, which are now finally ready to be enjoyed.
A daring collection of assorted macarons for unforgettable tastings
Each box of macarons offers a symphony of emotions, a promise of discovery, a new sensory experience. Starting with the bright color of the shells, which are sometimes decorated with subtle gourmet touches, your curiosity is piqued. The delicately crisp texture between your fingers gives you a sneak preview of the moment of pure pleasure you’ll experience when you bite into the macaron. The refreshing hints of fruit, comforting undertones of cocoa and warm notes of praline or caramel amaze your taste buds. Tasting a macaron means experiencing an unparalleled gourmet adventure, a revelation. You’ll love the crisp shell and luscious, smooth filling, expressing all its intense, yet subtle aromatic notes.
