Audabon Bakeshop: Gone but Not Forgotten!

This past spring, I was lucky to visit Audabon Bakeshop in Philadelphia, PA and as I am posting this, I am very sad to find that they closed last month. As a tribute to their fun and delicious macarons, I am going to share with you all my experience there. The bakeshop may be gone, but it is not forgotten!

While walking around Chinatown, I found this shop and was really surprised about how cute it was inside! I loved the style of the it. It was both modern and simple. Their macarons were served cold from their display case. Right away I was blown away by the beautiful colors! The macarons all had delicate shells and were delicious. The flavors that I tried were Strawberries and Cream, Salted Caramel Espresso, Hong Kong Milk Tea and Peach Cobbler.

Strawberries and Cream: These cookies were super soft with cream and fresh strawberry jam. It fell apart as I eat it, but in a good way.

Salted Caramel Espresso: This macaron had a strong espresso flavor with salted caramel in the middle and espresso cream on the outside. Luckily this was a tougher cookie because it held the cream perfectly.

Hong Kong Milk Tea: This cookie has a soft delicate shell and a fun purple color. The Asian inspired flavor had a barely sweet, milk tea cream. This was a great macaron and a fun new cream for me to try.

Peach Cobbler: This macaron had a peach filling with cream on the sides. It genuinely tasted like a fresh slice of pie!

If you ever reopen Audabon Bakeshop, I'd be happy to return!
