Ladurée is a world-renowned French luxury patisserie, founded in Paris in 1862. The acclaimed house rose to fame with its exquisite selection of viennoiseries and pastries – most notably, however, for its creation of the macaron.
Described as a biscuit with a delicate and crisp shell with a smooth ganache or jam filling, they come in a variety of classical and creative flavors. Ladurée’s macarons are often not mixed with more than two or three flavors to give each macaron a more pronounced taste.
The story of the Ladurée macaron starts in the middle of the 20th century with Pierre Desfontaines, Louis Ernest Ladurée’s second cousin, who first thought of taking two macaron shells and joining them with a delicious ganache filling. Since then, the recipe has not changed.
This May, this exquisite French taste was introduced in the form of a Pop-up store by its Chinese brand side, in one of the World’s most dynamic cities – Shanghai. Symbolic macaron chariot with dreamy white merry-go-round and pink-and-white ocean balls full of summer passion…It was the first time for this classic French brand to be interpreted towards Chinese customers in such a creative and unique way. Sweatiness in pop craziness!!
Summer days have gone by, but the heat never ends. September 21st, Ladurée pop-up will come back to Shanghai again. In this golden autumn, she’s ready to bring you into her romantic and delicate French rendez-vous. For this time, Ladurée will meet the customers in one of the chicest malls – Jing An Kerry Centre, near Nanjing West Road. The little chariot is back with macarons fabricated and directly imported from France. 11 classic and most-loved flavors are chosen, along with the delicate gift boxes, offering you the best and the sweetest experience ever. Apart from macarons, other beautiful gifts are also available, such as the cute golden king ring with various colors of choice and cherry motif hand shopping bags.
