Macaron - Rose Lychee

Floral, Exotic, and Delicately Perfumed.

Boulangerie Christophe's Rose Lychee Macaron is one of the most elegant flavors in the collection — a pairing that is quintessentially French pâtisserie. Two soft blush-pink almond shells — smooth, crisp on the outside, yielding within — sandwiched with a rose and lychee ganache that is floral, delicately sweet, and hauntingly fragrant. Light, refined, and completely unlike anything else in the case.

The Almond Shells

Made using the Italian meringue method — finely ground almond flour and powdered sugar folded into a glossy meringue of hot sugar syrup and egg whites. Each shell is piped to an exact diameter, rested until a skin forms, and baked until the signature ruffled foot develops. The shells are a soft, natural blush pink — the color of a garden rose — and aged for 24 hours after assembly to reach their ideal chewy, yielding texture.

The Rose Lychee Ganache

A delicate ganache made from fresh lychee purée, white chocolate, butter, and a touch of pure rose water — combined until silky and smooth, with a flavor that is simultaneously fruity and floral. The lychee brings a clean, tropical sweetness; the rose adds a soft, perfumed depth that lingers on the palate. Together they create a filling that is complex, aromatic, and completely addictive — without ever being heavy or overpowering.
