Pierre Hermé is universally acknowledged as the king of French pastry with shops in Tokyo, Paris and London. He is the best, and has even been described as a couturier of pastry. This is a man at the top of his art and there is no question his macarons are in a league of its own.

For the first time, the macaron recipes from this most celebrated French patissier are published in English. There are 200 pages of recipes and beautiful food photography, as well as instructions for making shells and fillings.
