- Ladur e reveals the secrets of their magical macaroons

The story of Ladur e started in 1862 when Louis Ernest Ladur e opened a bakery in the heart of Paris at 16 rue Royale. In 1872, following a fire, the little bakery became a pastry shop and the decoration was then done by Jules Cheret, a famous painter and poster-designer of the time. Jeanne Souchard, Ernest Ladur e's wife, then had the idea of combining the Parisian caf with a pastry-shop, thereby creating one of Paris' first tea-rooms. In 1993 Ladur e was bought by Francis and David Holder and becomes one of the best-known gourmet addresses in Paris, a veritable institution with its famous "macaroon" as its emblem. In 1997 Ladur e opened a tea-room/restaurant on the prestigious Champs-Elys es, followed by another in the Printemps department store and on the Left Bank as well as the beginning of their international adventure with branches in London, Geneva, Monaco and Tokyo. In this book Philippe Andrieu, the Pastry Chef at Ladur e, reveals 100 of the most famous Ladur e recipes, adapted for the general public. From the Strawberry Cake with Rose Choux Pastry to Pistachio Financiers and the world-famous macaroons in all their variety, this icon of French "art de vivre" is brought to life in a pallet of pastries the color of powder pink, light green, bright purple, and lemon yellow.
