France is a cake lover's paradise, with shops full of fabulous pastries and croissants at nearly every street corner. Where does this sweet savoir-faire come from? Genie Godula and Florence Villeminot find out more in this episode of French Connections Plus, where they get a class in macaron making from world-famous pastry chef Pierre Hermé.

Lately, i find that my local Costco imported Marcaron to be a little too sweet for me. It's ok, that way, i can have self control 😅

Croissants and macarons were created first in Italy.

Sorry but overrated,try to look for a pastry shop or a good bakery in the Rhône alpes region is nearly impossible it’s all factory made pretending to be artisan. France has gone downhill as pastries and food in general.

[@puccaland]

Sure, because we all believe that you reviewed the thousands of pastry shops and bakeries in the region. And we'll let you know when you'll be our barometer for anything.

[@guti1101]

Unfriendly staffs and expensive shops

[@puccaland]

A sign of the toxic tourist.
