I tried La Dorée and 2 other brands, and found them overly sweet, more moist and fillings not as creamy as I would like. Then I stopped by Pierre Herme and it was like a macaron heaven to me. The flavors were exotic and refreshing. The shops were not as crowded as La Dorée, and the staff was very friendly... More

This was my second visit to this shop and the display of pastries, tarts and macaroons look like beauiful works of art! I choose the creme caramel millefeuile, was light and flaky with a perfectly balanced creme caramel filling, not too heavy or sweet, amazing! More

The most filling for sure. Great flavor. Delicious. Note: you don't have to buy a box. Just ask for the ones you want and they come in a little bag. Saves money. More

Starting 30th January, Pierre Herme is introducing 6 new limited edition flavors of macarons called "Les Jardins" (The Gardens) some are good for 1 month, and every month he will be creating new flavors some are even longer than the others. I bought 7 different flavors that can fit in a cute gift box which cost 17 euro. You can... More

Macarons is one of my favourite <attractions> in Paris, and of course when I read that Pierre Hermé was better than La Durée, I had to try them.. They are soo delicious and scrumptious.. they have a more creamy filling versus La Durées jellys, and they have much more different and innovative flavours. They are however quite expensive.. a tad... More

My hobby every time I visit Paris is to find new, better, more interesting places for pastries and chocolate. But ever since I found Pierre Herme, I can't seem to find anything better! Their macarons are spectacular, especially some of the more interesting flavor combinations (my favorites are the white truffle and the strawberry/balsamic vinegar). Get there early for the... More

I read about this chocolatier versus Lauderee, so the visit of both shops is a must to indulge into the best in the world. I sure like Herme's appearance over L. This place is very modern and less crazy like Lauderee. The macaroons are superb so are the other crackers. My wife bought a bunch of different flavors of macaroons... More

I've tried all the top macaron shops in Paris, and Pierre Hermé has the best ones. Nothing else to say. Special mention for Infiniment Caramel, Infiniment Chocolat, Infiniment Citron, Infiniment Jasmin, Infiniment Pistache, Infiniment Rose, Huile d'Olive et Vanille, Réglisse et Violette, Asperge Verte et Huile de Noisette Cakes are to die for. I had the chance to try 2000... More

Bough a 12 piece box, it was very good generally except some favors which is more outlandish and does not agree with my taste buds More
