Fun Fact: It is believed that the macaroon originated in Italy. Macaroon actually originates from the Italian word for “paste,” “maccarone.” Mmmm… doesn’t that sound tasty? Seriously, though, macaroons taste nothing like paste. If you have not tried one before, you definitely should.

I must admit. I haven’t eaten many macaroons in my day. But staring at these for the past 30 minutes or so has made me want one in the worst way. I don’t have any in the house so I think I will drink some Coconut Mocha Coffee and then roll out to the store later and pick some up.

  • Hi Dawn! I did not know it was National Macaroon day! :) Thank you so much for including my Rosewater Almond macaroons in this great round-up of this fantastic treat. Hope you have a happy Saturday and a wonderful weekend!

  • Oooh, these are all macaroons with a twist! I'll share this page with my Mom. She bakes these things + crinkles too.

  • Rosewater Macaroons looks so elegant and the chocolate looks the yummiest! Thanks for some good recipes.

  • How often do you taste the macaroons you make when baking to make sure that they're already in the right and perfect texture as you want?

    • I am not really sure about that. You may want to go to the site where one of the recipes comes from and ask one of the people who came up with these recipes. I am sure they could offer you far more helpful advice than I can.

  • I love macaroons! They are one of my favorite cookies. Have you made any of these recipes? If so, which is your favorite? These all look amazing!

    • I have not made any of these myself, yet. These are collected from bloggers around the net. However, I do hope to try some very soon. I haven't made macaroons at all, lol. *gasp*

  • Oh my goodness, everything about these looks delicious. I've never made them at home, but I'd love to give it a try.
