Musical Macarons, Part 3
After all those tempting recipes and potentially leaving your family for them, I thought I’d keep it lighter (and less dangerous for your relationships) with another music-Macaron pairing post. If you’re confused why I’m talking about family strife on a…
Recipe: Orange-Pistachio Temptation Tart PLUS a Bonus Cookie :)
I’m going to cut straight-to-the-chase here: you will marry this tart. Or at least try to and hope that food marriage becomes legal sometime soon. You will spend hours, days, and even years longing for another taste of this rich,…
Recipe: Glazed Orange-Pistachio Shortbread Cookies
If I were to describe these cookies in two words, I’d use “elegant simplicity.” They don’t look flashy, or sound too out-there; but they’re regal, refined and (most importantly) absolutely delicious! This recipe is actually a bonus to the orange-pistachio…
Flavor Profile: Orange Pistachio Macarons

Flavor Profile: Sour Cherry Almond Macarons
There’s finally some sun again in “sunny” Colorado today (I hope you know that I’m aggressively side-eyeing this “300 days of sun” thing here…) after cloudy, frigid weather for most of this month. So with this spring-like reprieve, I wanted…
Musical Macarons, Part 1
By this point, food “experiences” have probably been ingrained into your head reading this blog. Poeme Macarons is, after all, inspired by the fervent emotions and memories that flavor can bring. However, “experiences” aren’t limited to just flavor–the other senses…
Flavor Profile: Lime-Basil Macarons
At Poeme Macarons, I never hesitate to use fresh ingredients; vibrancy, intensity, and decadence are all mutual goals for my macaron flavors. These three descriptors are especially true for my Lime-Basil creations. Bursting with zest and verve, these macarons are…
