Atelier Kawashima's Memorable Macarons Bring a Taste of France Via Marin County

T. Palmer

​Could French macarons be the next cupcake, a future bite-of-decadence craze? New kid on the block, Kentfield's Atelier Kawashima, probably hopes so, and offers a vibrant take on the product. We devoured a sampler with chocolate, pistachio, raspberry, and blueberry flavors in record time, the bounties of California organic produce ideally suited for fresh fillings. That's something we've got over the French. Find them at Blue Fog Market (2794 California at Divisadero) or order a custom dozen ($17) via Atelier Kawashima's Facebook page.
