Hey has anyone tried the macarons at Baker’s Dozen in Rockwell? I think they’re called Empire? I bought a box just yesterday and wow! Divine! So much better than Bizu’s, not matigas and quite generous with the filling:) I love the ‘marbled’ look in a couple of flavors, never saw that before. I wonder how this one fares compared to Laduree’s.

Farrah, I haven’t seen any almond flour for sale here in manila. Just buy shelled or de-skinned almonds, the white ones, or sliced skinless almonds and blitz them in a good food processor until fine. But be careful not to overblitz them. Sometimes the addition of a little powdered sugar helps in the blitzing process.
