Look at those colorful yummy-licious macarons ! I bet that if you ever have a chance to taste it, you would definitely return for more. 
Almond paste is the principal ingredient for making macaroon (in English) or macaron (in French) which is derived from an Italian word 'maccarone' or 'maccherone'. 
The filling sandwiched between the cookies are typically buttercream or jam. 

Generally people would get confused over the English word macaroon which can also refer to the coconut macaroon. I guess it is better to use the French word macaron to distinguish between these two items. 

Well yeah they are a little pricey as they cost like RM5 for one macaron for about a size of 50 cent coin. LOL 
Do try them if you have the chance to come across it ! :D
