Belgian pastry specialist, Pidy, has unveiled their new and improved range of flavoured macarons that boast improved smell, taste, and texture.
This iconic sweet treat has been made using a traditional method for a smooth, fine, crunchy finish, and is available in two sizes. The large macarons measure 6.9cm in diameter, with operators able to choose from neutral, chocolate, or raspberry flavours, while the mini macarons are just 3.5cm across, and come in neutral, chocolate, raspberry, and newly added pistachio.
Fabien Levet, Commercial Manager at Pidy UK is excited about the new macarons;
“Macarons are incredibly versatile. Cafes and restaurants can serve them individually, on an afternoon tea platter, as petits fours, or as decoration on larger desserts. With our new recipe we’ve created a macaron base which boasts a deliciously more-ish flavour, without overpowering the unique taste of operators’ filings.”
For best results, chefs should refrigerate the macarons once filled for 2-4 hours so they become moist inside. Remove 15-20 minutes before serving so they return to room temperature for optimal flavour. For greater convenience, Pidy’s macarons can also be frozen once filled – making them an ideal option for caterers looking to prep ahead of busy events, thus freeing up time and space in the kitchen.
Orders of large macarons are available in units of 64, while their mini counterpart come in packs of 180. With a shelf life of 10 months, operators will have plenty of time to experiment with creative flavour combinations without the worry of expiry logistics.
