When chef pâtissier Pascal Goupil opened Madeleine on 23rd Street during the summer, the Dish girls at our headquarters couldn’t get enough of the myriad flavors of macarons. After owning and operating the French Oven in Chelsea Market for so long, Goupil is a macaron pro. In his stand-alone, adorable pâtisserie, inventive varieties like red wine, salted caramel, and currant saddle up next to traditional chocolate, pistachio, and vanilla.
This month, Goupil introduces a few seasonal flavors. Celebrate Halloween with pumpkin, cranberry, and fig forms of the Parisian treat.
They’re a bit pricey at $2.50 a pop, but one—with its sugar domes encasing an ample slathering of buttercream—is rich enough that it’s all you’ll need.
If you are having a fête to honor the ghosts and goblins, picking up a few dozen macs will surely make your party a hit for the sugar-inclined set.
